When Victor Lazarus, the world's most powerful art broker, dies suddenly, the international art scene holds its breath. For decades, Lazarus built an empire not by owning the world's rarest masterpieces, but by exhibiting them—Monet, Van Gogh, Rembrandt, Da Vinci, Hokusai, and more. These works, entrusted to him by the world's wealthiest collectors, turned his gallery into their stage: where masterpieces drew crowds, prestige, and profit, until the moment the owners chose to sell. Now, with Lazarus gone, the curtain is rising on the greatest auction of the century. Twelve priceless works, each carrying centuries of history, are set to leave his gallery forever. For the elite, it is a chance to claim cultural immortality. For the press, it is a spectacle without equal. For one crew of six, it is something else entirely. They see more than paintings under glass. They see a once-in-a-lifetime fortune, one last performance of Lazarus's legacy, only rewritten in their favor. With few months to prepare, outthink security systems, staff rotations, and every eye that will be watching. Few months to pull off a heist that would shatter records and rewrite history. But art has a way of ensnaring those who covet it. In the chase for fortune, the question is not only whether the heist can succeed, but whether Lazarus's legacy will be honored, betrayed, or reborn in the shadows. The Lazarus Job is a razor-sharp thriller of art, ambition, power, and the dangerous game played where beauty and power collide.
