  <default_description>&lt;I&gt;The moment I&#8217;d scanned the outside of the building, I turned to Bruno and said, &#8220;First impressions, it looks straightforward.&#8221; Looking back, I can&#8217;t help but wonder what I was thinking. I mean, put that line at the opening of a crime novel and it&#8217;s practically a guarantee that everything is about to get complicated.&lt;BR&gt;&lt;BR&gt;&lt;/I&gt;Charlie Howard&#8212;globe-trotting mystery writer, professional thief, and poor decision maker&#8212;is in Paris. Flush with the success of his latest book reading, not to mention a few too many glasses of wine, Charlie agrees to show a complete novice how to break into an apartment in the Marais. Fast-forward twenty-four hours and Charlie&#8217;s hired to steal an ordinary-looking oil painting&#8212;from the exact same address.&lt;BR&gt;&lt;BR&gt;Mere coincidence? Charlie figures there&#8217;s no harm in finding out&#8212;until&#160;a dead body&#160;turns up in his living room and he finds himself evading the law while becoming caught up in a quite outrageous heist. And that&#8217;s before Charlie&#8217;s literary agent, Victoria (who&#8217;s naive enough to assume that he looks like his&#160;author photo), finally decides they should meet face-to-face.&lt;BR&gt;&lt;BR&gt;Nobody ever said a life of suspense was easy, but Charlie, the most disarmingly charming burglar since Cary Grant, soon finds things are getting way out of control.</default_description>

    <body><![CDATA[I must not have been in the mood for this book. Other reviewers thought it amusing and fun and I found myself skimming through major parts of it just trying to finish.

    <body><![CDATA[This book, like the Good Thief's Guide to Amsterdam is good but not a real page-turner.  It has some laugh-out-loud moments and enough plot twists to make it worth finishing, though.  Ewan's odd declension of sitting/standing verbs is distracting (she was sat, they were stood, etc.).]]></body>
