About This Item
London:: Century, , (1993). SIGNED hardcover first edition -. Very near fine in a fine dustjacket (usual toning to the pages, but otherwise tight and clean) . First printing. The 16th Lovejoy novel. Once again broke, he is moonlighting as a driver of a "luxury fornication pantechnicon" for Gaunt's Tryste Service, and this introduces him to several "shady types in settings that include a luxurious rural repository for valuable antiques in Switzerland, a picture-perfect stage set of the same in East Anglia and a sweatshop employing child slaves in Paris. The theme is fakes: how they're made and by whom, how to spot them and what happens when a bunch of unscrupulous plotters pool their millions to launch a huge furniture scam." (PW). SIGNED on the title page. 280 pp.
