- Synopsis
- The priceless Royal Crown of Hungary was on display in St Patrick's Cathedral in New York. Guarded by many, including the NYPD and the gypsy, Roman Grey, a heist was impossible. But it happened, and murder, mayhem and all hell broke loose... Roman Grey, an antique dealer and gypsy, has no real interest in the Royal Crown of Hungary, temporarily on display at St. Patrick's Cathedral in New York City. But due to his expertise in historical artefacts, he reluctantly answers a summons to analyse and protect the priceless relic. Then, despite an ever-vigilant team of police and key experts, a daring heist is pulled off and murder and chaos follow. And amongst the madness, Grey uncovers a hundred-year-old secret about the royal artefact that is more incredible than he could have ever imagined. . . 'Martn Cruz Smith's dogged research. . . lifts him high about the hack thriller-writer' Independent 'One of those writers that anyone who is serious about their craft views with respect bordering on awe' Val McDermid
