The plinth, the glass, Lot 44, the tapestry, a Regency side table, and a marble bust of the founder all reach the floor in an order that experts will dispute for years.  In the wreckage, the truth: Lot 44 has bounced.  Diamonds do not bounce. Lot 44 is paste — a copy, consigned three weeks ago, catalogued, verified by the house, and waiting for tomorrow's evening sale, where the REAL Rose would quietly replace it at the moment of sale, laundering eleven million dollars of stolen diamond through Harrogate's own catalogue, with the auction house itself as the unwitting fence.  The buyer at tomorrow's sale would walk out with the genuine Rose and a genuine receipt.  The Heron did not write the lot number for the police. He wrote it for his buyer — and the sale is tomorrow, and the buyer is coming, and so is he.  Fouchard, from inside the tapestry: 'You see, mon ami. Ze room has spoken.'  (+20)"
