It is said that the greatest art forger in the world is the one who has never been caught. Caveat Emptor reveals the astonishing story of America’s most accomplished art forger. Ten years ago, an FBI investigation in conjunction with the U.S. Attorney’s Office in the Southern District of New York was about to expose a scandal in the art world that would have been front-page news in New York and London. After a trail of fake paintings of astonishing quality led federal agents to art dealers, renowned experts, and the major auction houses, the investigation inexplicably ended, despite an abundance of evidence collected. The case was closed and the FBI file was marked “exempt from public disclosure.” Now that the statute of limitations on these crimes has expired and the case appears hermetically sealed shut by the FBI, this book, Caveat Emptor, is Ken Perenyi’s confession. It is the story, in detail, of how he pulled it all off. Glamorous stories of art-world scandal have always captured the public imagination. However, not since Clifford Irving’s 1969 bestselling Fake has there been a story at all like this one. Caveat Emptor is unique in that it is the first and only book by and about America’s first and only great art forger. And unlike other forgers, Perenyi produced no paper trail, no fake provenance whatsoever; he let the paintings speak for themselves. And that they did, routinely mesmerizing the experts in mere seconds. In the tradition of Frank Abagnale’s Catch Me If You Can, and certain to be a bombshell for the major international auction houses and galleries, here is the story of America’s greatest art forger.

For years, Ken Perenyi raked in riches forging masterpieces, convincing even the most discerning experts that his works were the real deal. His works are so flawless that they are still appearing as originals in auction house catalogs, fine art, design and architecture magazines, unexposed as the forgeries they really are. Growing up as a working class kid in Fort Lee, New Jersey, Perenyi never dreamed of becoming an art forger. However, when he stumbled upon The Castle, a large crumbling estate in his neighborhood, he found himself in the middle of the New York avant-garde art scene. Under their mentorship, he discovered he possessed a preternatural ability to copy the works of old masters, an ability that confounded even the most qualified experts and catapulted him to a life of riches. Honest, gripping and astounding, Caveat Emptor reveals the ironies and hypocrisies latent to the art world, plus an explanation of just exactly how Perenyi managed to pull it off.

A New York art dealer, Monique Lefebre, while driving to the Hampton's in her Mercedes to spend the weekend on the beach, stops to pick up a hitchhiker, an impoverished painter who, during the ensuing conversation, claims to be an accomplished art faker. She thinks he is bragging, so she challenges him, a dare he finds too good to ignore. Thus she learns that his counterfeits are so well done that she intends to collaborate with this down-at-the-heels artist, whose name is Michael Cray. Adam Jonas, the CEO of a young, thriving bio-tech company who is also an ardent art collector, makes often the rounds of the New York art galleries on weekends. During the next one, in the company of his young paramour, Carmen Travejo, an art historian and museum curator, she discovers, very astutely, that the Lefebre gallery is selling contemporary fakes by big name artists as masterpieces. In his attempt to learn more about this latest art crime, Adam finally bags himself not only an important Nazi war criminal but a Mafia killer and drug dealer as well and, finally... his old foe Ted Barnum, the elusive perpetrator of an hitherto unsolved crime that involved the theft of a truck load of paintings during its transit from one museum to the next. (as described in Vol I: Tangled Lives), all in one fell swoop.
