This is a story of struggle, sadness, disappointments, and achievements of a young artist called Vincent, who is constantly in trouble with his graffiti in his school life. Then he meets a friend, Thomas, and both study hard for university. With Vincent's dad lost in Bosnia, presumed dead, the social effects from conflict to happy moments in his struggle to achieve are reflected in this story. It traces the life of a young artist making good his talents and becoming involved in antiques that takes him into mainland Europe, seeking Hitler's hidden treasurers and on to Egypt and Cairo only to be confronted with murder and mysteries of a pendant believed to be cursed that was presented to the family many years earlier. The story covers two generations that inherit intrigue and murder with strange beliefs and speaks of the lies of those in power, seeking greater powers, and the trust of employees and friends who are stretched to protect their employer in a family business.
