A quirky and colorful FBI undercover agent, Tom McShane, is tasked with creating the agency’s art theft division in the wild and wooly 1970s. Acting as a one man operation backed by unlimited resources, McShane spent two decades souring the planet for stolen art – some cases dating back centuries – eventually recovering more than $500 million in irreplaceable masterpieces. One of McShane’s cases morphed into history’s biggest political sting, AbScam, the basis for the blockbuster film American Hustle.
