The Good Thief's Guide to Venice
(2011)(The fourth book in the Charlie Howard series)
A novel by Chris Ewan
2012 CrimeFest: Last Laugh Award (nominee)
Charlie, a gentleman thief to rival Cary Grant in 'To Catch a Thief,' gallivants around Venice in the next caper in this sparkling series.
After a particularly bad streak of luck in Vegas, Charlie has retreated to Venice, having vowed to give up a life of crime to write crime fiction full-time. But inspiration has yet to strike. And to make matters worse, Charlie's agent Victoria shows up at his door just as his prized first edition of The Maltese Falcon flies out the window with a femme-fatale burglar. Blackmailed into committing a dastardly crime in order to get his book back, Charlie is catapulted into yet another adventure, this one even more explosive than the last.
Genre: Cozy Mystery
