Moonspender

Jonathan Gash

Lovejoy doesn't mind making an occasional fake... But the wholesale theft of national treasures is not something he can go along with. So when 'moonspenders' - antiques poachers with hi-tech electronic metal detectors - start digging up the ancient buried treasures of his native East Anglia it's time for Lovejoy to take a stand.

As usual there are some surprising complications including a local gangster who insists that Lovejoy appear on a TV game show a few suspicious deaths a wedding some local witches and several women who can't resist Lovejoy's charms. But then who can?

'Irrepressible... bounteous entertainment' Sunday Times

'Unabashedly amoral witty and crammed with treasures of every sort... Pure unadulterated Lovejoy' Publishers Weekly
