A poor woman in a shabby Los Angeles apartment receives an original oil painting by one of modern artrs"s great masters, easily worth half a million dollars. Although the artist has been dead for a quarter century, the painting appears to have been recently completed. When the worldrs"s foremost authority on the artistrs"s work pronounces it authentic, three lives are destined to collide: the sketch artist and roustabout at a traveling Mexican circus who longs to paint the face of God, the daughter the sketch artist does not know he has, and the man who plans to kill them both.
