In 1941, France's national treasure, Leonardo da Vinci's Mona Lisa painting, was moved from the National Gallery to the Biltmore House near Asheville, North Carolina, for safekeeping.
German General Hermann Goring hears about the move and sends a team of Luftwaffe officers to America.
Their mission is to break out a German art expert from an American POW camp and continue to Asheville to steal the Mona Lisa, leaving a masterful forgery in its place.
Unbeknownst to the Nazis, a second scoundrel has a similar plan in place. However, while his wealth may provide him the resources to succeed, his greed may be his undoing.
Will this villainy succeed?
Will the P.O.W. escape expose the German's presence on American soil? Does only an Army security squad and a determined French art curator stand in their way?
