The Very Last Gambado by Jonathan Gash
In the world of antiques there is one great remaining scam. The very last gambado. Robbing the British Museum. Of course, the murder, mayhem and double crossing is only going to happen in a film. Or is it? After all, Lovejoy has been employed on the set as antiques advisor. Praise for Jonathan Gash: 'Irrepressible... bounteous entertainment' Sunday Times 'Lovejoy is up to his old tricks again... compelling stuff' Today 'Unabashedly amoral, witty and crammed with treasures of every sort... Pure, unadulterated Lovejoy' Publishers Weekly
