Midnight in the private appraisal vault of Kincaid & Co. Fine Art was supposed to be silent. Instead, the heavy bronze plinth on the central display table had come down with crushing force, ending Ambrose Kincaid's final valuation before the hammer could ever fall. Broken glass from shattered display cases lay scattered around the body, but no jewels had been taken.
