Their eyes met across a crowded room. She was just a poor servant girl & he was the son of a rich industrialist. Er no this is a Christopher Brookmyre novel although the eyes meeting across a crowded room part is true. Where it differs from the fairy tales is that the room in question was crowded with hostages & armed bank-robbers & his eyes were the only part of him she could see behind the mask. He is an art-thief par excellence & she is a connoisseur of crooks. Her job is to hunt him to extinction; his is to avoid being caught & he also has a secret agenda more valuable than anything he might steal.

What he cant afford is to let her get too close: he could could end up in jail or even more scary he could end up in love.. . Visit the authors website at www.brookmyre.co.uk ...
