Moonspender

2017 | Fiction & Poetry

Lovejoy doesn't mind making an occasional fake...But the wholesale theft of national treasures is not something he can go along with. So when 'moonspenders' - antiques poachers with hi-tech electronic metal detectors - start digging up the ancient buried treasures of his native East Anglia, it's time for Lovejoy to take a stand. As usual, there are some surprising complications, including a local gangster who insists that Lovejoy appear on a TV game show, a few suspicious deaths, a wedding, some local witches, and several women who can't resist Lovejoy's charms. But then, who can? Praise for Jonathan Gash: 'Irrepressible...bounteous entertainment' Sunday Times 'Lovejoy is up to his old tricks again...compelling stuff' Today 'Unabashedly amoral, witty and crammed with treasures of every sort...Pure, unadulterated Lovejoy' Publishers Weekly
