The Jackpot Hoax: A Highlands and Islands Detective Thriller - Paperback

by G. R. Jordan (Author)

A key belonging to a long dead man opens a treasure trove. Highly sought antiques are discovered to be mere forgeries. Can DI Grump and DI Urquhart join forces to find out just who played the arts community and scored a fortune?

When a symbol on a key leads to the opening of the vault at a recent country home given to the nation, it is found to house the real antiques that should be resting in the houses of the gentry. The key belongs to a dead man who died in mysterious circumstances bringing the Inverness Cold Case and Arts teams together to work out why so many of the aristocracy now have piles of forgeries in their homes. With new DCI Lambert demanding progress, Emmett and Clarissa must find a way to work together and bring home the biggest and richest cold arts case Scotland has ever seen.

All that glistens is not gold...., we're not sure it's even metal!
