Eduardo de Valfierno makes a living fleecing the nouveau riche. They pay him to steal valuable pieces of art, and Valfierno sells them flawless forgeries instead. When Eduardo meets the beautiful Mrs. Hart, he takes a risk, goes to Paris, and assembles a team for a final theft: The Mona Lisa. But when a member of the team turns up missing, and Mr. Hart shows up in Paris, Valfierno and his crew must stay one step ahead of a relentless police inspector, endure a devastating flood, and conquer their own doubts to keep the priceless painting in play - and survive.
