Klappentext
Cambridge University master Sir Flyte Rascallian has little interest in the innocent-looking set of old paintings he inherits from his aunt Beatrice, until he takes a closer look . . . and ends up dead.Something
is bothering Sir Flyte Rascallian, renowned art expert and Master of Hardwick
College at the University of Cambridge. Are the grimy paintings he recently inherited
from his aunt as worthless as he claims? Curator
Ambrose Nussknacker believes one of the paintings could be a genuine Rembrandt.
Why is Sir Flyte so reluctant to get it authenticated, and so determined to avoid
the tributes due to the discovery of one of the world's great lost treasures?
When Sir
Flyte is found murdered in the Master's Lodge, Detective Chief Inspector Arthur
St. Just must unravel his unusual actions to solve the death of the old master.
College fellows, staff, and students all agree something was amiss. But as St.
Just investigates, he quickly becomes entangled in a web of deception following
the trail of priceless artwork people would kill to possess.
Fans of M. C. Beaton and Dorothy Sayers will love this entertaining mystery featuring delightfully eccentric characters.
