Ethan Shaw, a poor shop worker, gains the power to hear antiques after a lion painting shatters. Using this gift, he exposes fakes, finds a five-million-dollar marble saint, and attracts Lord Langford, who recognizes him as his lost grandson. In the Langford family, he is bullied by the fake heir Vance and biased relatives. Ethan teams up with cold CEO Lucia Hale, exposes Vance’s crimes and a smuggling ring’s chalice bomb, and cuts all blood ties. He becomes a billionaire appraiser and, with Lucia, builds Shaw & Hale, the antique world’s leading empire. A fast-paced story of revenge and triumph.
