Noel Beck's family heirloom - a copper engraving - causes a ripple of interest on the Antiques Roadshow in Portsmouth. But when London art dealers and international politicos start buzzing like bees around the biblical scene with its coded written message, and Noel finds his house bugged and his bank account raided, the ripple becomes a flood. The engraving's real owner, a Holocaust survivor called David Neufeld, embroils Noel in another pictorial mystery. This time it concerns a Monet owned by a grumpy retired prime minister... a fabulous painting of Westminster, dubiously acquired and now worth millions. Christopher Chandler's sharp-edged study of greed, power and betrayal is a masterpiece of documentary fiction, and should not be missed. Author biog. The Author is a retired corporate lawyer who worked mainly in the computer industry. He lives in Cornwall with two cats. He walks, reads, and tries to write. He is interested in politics, sport and philosophy. He goes to England occasionally, but much prefers to be west of the River Tamar.
