The priceless Royal Crown of Hungary was on display in St Patrick's Cathedral in New York. Guarded by many, including the NYPD and the gypsy, Roman Grey, a heist was impossible. But it happened, and murder, mayhem and all hell broke loose. By the author of "Gorky Park".

3.0 out of 5 stars
Mystery, Action, Gypsies, Gold, Theft and some Fun,
By A Customer
This review is from: Canto for a Gypsy (Hardcover)
Martin Cruz Smith creates at least one memorable character in this novel of mystery and theft. His descriptions and characters are very nice, though not to the same level of interest of his later work. His easy style of writing makes for a fun read. You get a taste of Gypsy life and history wrapped in an exciting story of hidden/found/lost/stolen/conterfeit crown jewels. If you like Martin Cruz Smith, you'll enjoy this book, as I did.

By A Customer
This review is from: Canto for a Gypsy (Audio Cassette)
