Getting Even - The Biggest Heist in History (Paperback): Dick Sharples Getting Even - The Biggest Heist in History (Paperback)
Dick Sharples
R483 Discovery Miles 4 830 Ships in 18 - 22 working days

THREE MEN, with totally different backgrounds and professional skills have but one thing in common - all three, in one way or another, have been shafted by the present-day political and financial establishments. Rendered unemployed, close to bankruptcy and extremely bitter, all three are prepared to do anything to Get Even with The System. Legally or illegally. AT A PRESS CONFERENCE in London, an equally bitter, mega-rich Greek shipping heiress Athena Papadopulous castigates the British Government and the British Museum for their refusal to return the legendary Elgin Marbles to where she believes they rightfully belong - the Parthenon Temple in Athens - despite her being willing to pay any sum the Museum may demand. AN IDLE SPECULATION by one of the three as to just how much she would be prepared to pay for the 'removal' - albeit illicitly - of the marbles from the Museum's Duveen Gallery for transportation back to Greece turns out to be just the beginning of an attempt to carry out what would be the biggest, most outrageous heist of the Century. 'A page turner that had me on the edge of my seat.' Crime International Magazine. 'Getting Even is surprisingly even-handed in setting out the moral case for and against the return of the Elgin Marbles to Greece.' Journal of the Anglo-Hellenic Institute. 'A totally convincing and unusually fast moving comedy thriller.' Sunday Argus. THE AUTHOR: Dick Sharples is a Manchester-born, award-winning novelist, dramatist and writer of many comedy and drama series for films, television and radio.
