Summary: Ireland like you've never seen it before!
Review: Lovejoy goes to Ireland in order to avenge a friend's death, and to take part in the ultimate "sleeper" scheme. As Lovejoy said - "Times are hard in the antiques industry and it's not the dealers' fault if antiques have to be salted away and redisovered. It's also not his fault if such antiques are not really antiques at all." Welcome to the sleazy world of Lovejoy and his unique look on crime. Who'd have thought there could be so many grey areas? Anyway, this is another good one in the Lovejoy series, and Gash handles his double con job with a deft hand indeed. Can't wait to read more.

Rating: 5 stars
Summary: Lovejoy discovers Ireland
Review: One of my favorites in the Lovejoy series. As one of the series' earlier books, it lacks the frantic pace the author employs in the last five or six--much more care is taken with the details. There's a bit of everything here--a few harrowing escapes; a qurky thin and tall Irishmen with an equally quirky vehicle; his beautiful cousin who makes all the right moves; the usual scam by money-hungry pursuers and producers of false antiquities; and in the middle-of-it-all, the wise, and contradictorally naive but worldly Lovejoy, the man who understands what's important and oblivious to what is not.
