From AudioFile
Former FBI Agent Jeff Talbot, now a professional antique picker, is searching for a cabaret set (tea service) gifted by Napoleon to his beloved Josephine. Jeff goes to Michigan to find this priceless treasure, but hes not the only one after it. When murder follows, he finds himself involved in searching for the killer. This first book in the Jeff Talbot Antique Lovers series is a joy to listen to. The characters are quirky, and Reed McColm does a fine job distinguishing each with an easy style and cadence. The historical side trips and details about collectibles are an additional pleasure. Even the recommended list of books on antiques presented at the end is fun listening. This series is snazzy and smart. A.C.P. © AudioFile 2007, Portland, Maine-- Copyright © AudioFile, Portland, Maine --This text refers to the Audio CD edition.
Book Description
Since Jeff Talbot left the FBI, he's been investigating yard sales as a professional antique picker. And though he prefers finding hidden treasures to finding hidden bodies, he discovers that for some collectors, the right item can be worth killing for-like a one-of-a-kind French cabaret set.
"A deft blend of mystery [and] mayhem." (Harlan Coben)

First Sentence:
IT WAS SOMETHING you didn't often see on the expressway: a factory-condition '48 Chevy woodie, glossy black-it had, easily, twenty coats of paint-with gleaming wooden side panels from which came its nickname, and whitewalls like new ivory.
