Set in the first decade of the 20th century, this tale of fraud and intrigue is told in the first person with verve by this renowned author. With other "swindlers" their activities encompass crooked roulette tables set to trap greedy gamblers and a leisure cruise on a phantom luxury yacht. The back drop ranges from the glamour of the French Riviera to the back streets of London. And who are the ladies? Which of the ladies in the plots is a true 'love interest'? Is she truly loyal or an agent of his enemies? A hard to put down read.
