Asteroid colony dwellers Johan and his wife, Andrea, scored the ultimate bargain: Barcelona chairs, designed by historically famous architect Mies van der Rohe and built over a century ago and hundreds of millions of miles away on Earth. Their friends would envy them....

....until an appraiser told them the Barcelona chairs were fakes. Assembled by nanotechnology and falsely certified as antiques. Worthless.

Never mind the money they'd spent. Far worse, the shame they'd feel when their friends found out.

Against a backdrop of an interplanetary crisis, could Johan find a way to turn the tables—and chairs?
