Julia is a young art expert in Madrid. Her specialty is the restoration of paintings about to go up for auction. But her latest project could also be her last. A 15th-century masterpiece, the painting depicts a chess game between the Duke of Ostenburg and his knight, as a lady in black velvet sits in the background. What makes this project different is the hidden inscription Julia discovers in the corner: Quis necavit equitem. Translation: Who killed the knight? And the answer could kill Julia.
