"Lovejoy discovers how the lure of gold brings out the worst kind of treasure seeker when, broke as usual and earning a crust as an unlikely babysitter, he stumbles across the diaries of a painter that appear to point to the whereabouts of a fabled hoard of Roman gold coins. Lovejoy is tempted to dismiss the whole thing as a hoax, but vile threats and violent intimidation have a way of changing his mind. He sets out to unravel the clues in the diaries, with some particularly nasty characters dogging his every move."
"Lovejoy, the racy, knowledgeable, irreverent antiques dealer who delighted readers of the award-winning The Judas Pair - is back. Not even a spot of baby-minding and endeavouring to instruct an assistant whose talents (non-apparent and perhaps non-existent) were never intended for the antiques trade, was going to keep body and soul together much longer. So when he learned from a woman - and who else would Lovejoy learn from? - of a skilled faker who had left a series of duplicate clues to an apparently mythical 'find' of Roman treasure, his unfailing instinct told him the find was genuine and he'd better unravel the clues."
