In San Francisco, Dan Kearny Associates raids a classic car dealership, while in Los Angeles, a Gypsy's dying words finger a Gypsy princess for his murder. In Hong Kong, a unique treasure has been stolen by gimlet-eyed L.A. oil tycoon Victor Hess--making Willem Van de Post, in Rome, plot across continents with his uncle, the King of the Gypsies, to get it back. The mayhem continues when the Gypsies hire DKA to find their framed damsel in distress before the cops do, & a German baron hires DKA to test the defenses at Hess' mountain fortress. But no one is exactly who or what they seem: everyone is conning, scamming, & grifting on all their twisted roads to Rome.Gores, Joe is the author of 'Cons, Scams, and Grifts' with ISBN 9780892965946 and ISBN 0892965940.
