FitzDuncan's Alchemy

By John Spearman

Alchemists claim to turn lead into gold. Why would anyone want to change gold into lead?

When you're trying to con a con man, of course

A man swindled out of a truly staggering sum of money engages Caz to get it back. Under his usual terms, Caz keeps half of whatever he recovers. But getting the money will not only be difficult, but also dangerous, as the con man is a member of one of Aquileia's larger criminal organizations.

Swindling a swindler is no easy task, and Caz must craft an elaborate scheme. He needs the help of his friend Freddy, who poses as the dim-witted Lord Compote, while Caz himself is in disguise as an inexperienced con man. Caz calls upon the master criminal for assistance in landing the fish he has on the line, knowing the man will see him as a patsy.

Caz knows that success in recovering the money for his client will bring down the wrath of an entire criminal enterprise on Caz's shoulders. Will it be worth it? For Caz has been granted access to a far greater prize-the Duke of Gulick has given Caz his permission to marry the brilliant, beautiful, and extremely talented Lucy.

The criminals will stop at nothing to protect their gold, and they know Caz's heart's desire and his greatest weakness.
