Abiding Legacy

Four centuries had past since Pierre Paul Rubens painted a collection of three commissioned portraits; sisters - one of which would hand down a legacy. Alex Sachs, an average Englishman to his friends, would be bequeathed through his unknown grandfather, a legacy of his own. Along with this heritage and by sheer happenstance, he would meet a woman who unbeknownst to herself was part of this very legacy. Their journey involves art theft on a grand and historic scale while traveling from Jerusalem to London, from Milan and Florence to Paris and the French countryside. The narrative flows in time from sixteenth to nineteenth century Italy and travels to Nazi occupied Paris, while never loosing touch with its Abiding Legacy.
