The third novel by the famous English writer David Dickinson about the adventures of Lord Powerscourt (the SLOVO publishing house has already introduced the previous two to Russian readers). The Victorian era is still in full swing, the British are at war with the Boers, and the “new Americans” who have earned huge money from oil and railways, want to join European culture. One after another they go to London to buy paintings by old Italian and English masters to decorate their luxurious mansions. Enterprising traders are happy to sell counterfeits to poorly educated Americans... And then the entire London art world is shocked by the news of the murder of a famous critic, a specialist in Renaissance painting. Who needed to kill a scientist? Who benefited from his death? Only Lord Powerscourt can answer all these riddles, and his loving wife Lady Lucy and his faithful friend Johnny Fitzgerald help him, as always...
