The Paint: A Novel of Art, Science, and Deception

By Dimitry Shabsis

THE PAINT
A Novel of Art, Science, and Deception

Things aren't always what they seem to be. Sometimes the forger escapes. Sometimes love wins. Sometimes the perfect crime is to disappear completely and find peace in anonymity. This is the story of a man who wanted to be Rembrandt and became himself instead.

With a narrative that spirals through deception and desire, this is a story built on secrets - where every truth hides another lie. Each twist reshapes what the reader believes, leading to a conclusion as inevitable as it is unpredictable.

For fans of The Da Vinci Code and The Goldfinch, Dimitry Shabsis' debut novel is a spellbinding thriller about truth, beauty, and the price of perfection.
