Based in the fact that the WWII machine of Hitler, after sending away many wealthy although still 'inferior', Jews to die in the gas chambers by the millions, then stole and secreted away many of their extremely valuable works of art. (And though this may sound crass, it is fortunate for us today that the Nazis did cherish these paintings and sculptures and such, since in too many past wars, the conqueror--often Muslim--destroyed all the art of the vanquished.)
In Reserve we meet an FBI agent who occasionally colors outside the lines, a seductive beauty named Sivia, who works to recover stolen WWII art, pitted against a team of ruthless gunmen hired by 21st Century Nazis to recover the huge cache of 80 plus masterpieces known as the 'Führer's Reserve,' so that their future auction might generate the income needed to fund an arisen Nazi Party.
Decker, the head gunman, studies and gains such an appreciation for art, you know that author Paul Lindsay must be the 'source' of this appreciation, as a few of the re-discovered paintings are described by Decker in such a manner that the reader wants to stop reading and scour the Internet for a visual of the mentioned masterpiece.
Much like the movies National Treasure and the "Indiana Jones" series, Reserve is a find-and-follow-the-clues, track 'em down adventure, however, involving many more twists, turns, cold blooded murders, double-crosses with occasional bits of the German language thrown in.
Reserve is a well-written, researched and intricately plotted book that I think anyone, especially those familiar with World War Two, will find exciting and enjoyable.
