Going, Going, Gone (A Jonathan Benjamin Franklin Mystery)
Description:
Jonathan Benjamin Franklin, the brilliant, but easily flummoxed Harvard Lay School professor, is scratching his head again as he fumbles through another puzzling affair of the art world. This time he's floundering in his attempt to help (and bed; the boy's god a strong sex drive) the dark hair French beauty, Nicole DeSant, whose inheritance will disappear if her father committed suicide. But the bodies keep piling up as he's having trouble seeing over them, even on tiptoes. He must simultaneously save his old friend Simon Aaron's great auction house, Witten's, from the hands of an insidious corporate raider. It's getting difficult to keep up with his teaching duties and his young lady friends. Not to mention his addiction to fine wine. It all turns on a twisted tale of Nazi looting, art forgery and big time corporate intrigue. Are you having a nice day, Jonathan, or would you like a glass of wine?
