O'Keefe is an American guarding a US art exhibit in London with special care because Leonardo da Vinci's "Madonna and Child" is part of the show. A recent flurry of art thefts has the exhibitors concerned, and, as expected, the Da Vinci is swiped, with a fake left in its place. The
watchful O'Keefe follows the burglars as they unsuspectingly lead him to the private gallery of the wealthy villain. Technical aspects on fake paintings are fascinating.
