A fast-paced comic adventure of stolen antiquities and the New York art world featuring an unlikely hero named Fred Munson. Fred, a New York co-op based Quixote perched somewhere between Willy Loman and Indiana Jones becomes obsessed with a pristine Greek vase from the fifth century BC and a pottery shard he sees in a grainy video. Both bear ancient graffiti which he believes may have come from the same hand and which he believes may lead to the lost works of Euripides.Freds unlikely odyssey takes him on a wild journey through a fleabag hooker hotel, a late-night talk show, the Soho loft of a beautiful Russian curator and the back offices of the Metropolitan Museum, all the while attempting to duck the wrath of a wealthy Museum donor and keep his marriage intact.
