Description
John Dortmunder's latest predicament is one he'd rather not have. A master thief with a penchant for depression, he finds himself entangled in an impossible crime that he doesn't want and can't believe in.
A little blackmail from a tough ex-cop named Eppick sets him on a perilous treasure hunt for a long-lost gold and jewel-studded chess set. The stakes are high, with no clear way out of the game, as Dortmunder faces insurmountable odds from the very start.
With his usual gang by his side, Dortmunder must navigate this treacherous path to uncover the truth behind the impossible crime and escape unscathed. Will he succeed, or will the game prove too much for him?
