neifile7
Author Website: Fic masterlist
Why this must be read:
When a possible Manet forgery turns up at a Parisian auction house, Interpol calls on our favorite (alleged) forger and his FBI handler for assistance. Will Neal resist the many temptations of Paris? Can Peter dodge a trip to Dior Homme? Is the painting a cunning fake, or a lost masterpiece?
This clever casefic grew out of an interesting collaboration: the primary author,neifile7, sent postcards from "Neal" or "Peter" to various people. The recipients wrote replies in the voice of whichever character the postcards had been addressed to, and included the cards in tableaux which they photographed. The results were finally assembled into a charming, slightly melancholy, postmodern mystery/art history essay/travelogue/comedy.
