OverExposure by Hugo Rifkind
All is not well in the big smoke. When a shadowt cat-burglar called Fingers starts stealing diamonds from London celebrities, Macaulay Lewis, a misfit news-hound, scents opportunity. If he can expose the thief, he might stand a chance of holding down his job with the paper. His ex-girlfriend mgiht fancy him again. He migh even get snapped by the odd celeb magazine himself. Fame glitters. But is it all really worth the cab ride home? Expose yourself to the flashiest, edgiest comedy of modern life in recent years.

Rifkind has a cheeky sense of humour, and has successfully pulled together a fast-moving and entertaining little comic novel. Like all decent comedy, it's near the knuckle, too. A jaunty and entertaining debut novel. * * Independent * *
Extremely funny and incredibly fast-paced. -- Jenny Colgan
