On a dark and rainy night, amorous antiques dealer Lovejoy and his lady of the moment witness a car being forced off the road and over an embankment; the mortally injured driver turns out to be Leckie, a fellow antiques dealer and old army chum. Lovejoy's search for the villains is spiced with the promise of a valuable cache of antiques hidden somewhere at the end of the line. Spirited, vivid writing and a marvelously varied cast of characters from the shadier side of the antiques world make this Jonathon Gash's best book to date.
