Policemen Harpur and Iles get mixed up in the criminal world of
fine art dealing Detective Chief Superintendent Colin Harpur feels
a sort of warmth towards Jack Lamb, a brilliantly prosperous but
profoundly dodgy fine arts dealer. Lamb is the greatest informant
Harpur has ever dealt with - might be the greatest informant any
police officer has ever dealt with - and although Jack ended this
arrangement some time ago, Harpur still feels indebted to him.
Lamb's posh manor house is stuffed with expensive paintings, ripe
for the pinching . . . and small-time thief George Dinnick and his
crew intend to relieve him of a few. But their plans are
complicated by local big-time crook Ralph Ember, who is on the
lookout for some art to elevate his gentleman's club, The Monty;
and who else would he visit to procure this art but Jack Lamb? Add
to the mix odd-job man and stolen-art procurer Basil Gordon Loam -
aka Enzyme - who Harpur and Iles would very much like to see locked
up, and things start to get complicated indeed.
