More about the book
The three confidence tricksters - two blokes and a bird - had a style that earned them millions. Silas was the leader, slick and self-assured -- but dissatisfied. Bob was the junior partner, longing for the open road where pickings were rich and the living was easy. And Liz, Silas' mistress, was! in between. Theirs was a built-in love triangle with its own rewards! and its own dangers. In New York these con-artists do a 'business deal' worth millions. But back in London Silas' plan to bilk an emergent African nation misfires. Then Bob takes over the running of the operation -- and Liz. A Beirut bank is their target and each member of the trio gets what he or she deserves -- each with a twist of lemon.
