Count Dankworth: Elvis Impersonator, Bk 1
Book #1 of an Action Thriller Series on Art Fraud and International Espionage (Remaining books on Amazon, BarnesandNoble.com, NOOK, Paperback). A spinoff from the series, “Hitchcock and Me: In the Shadow.” The main character, Count Rafe Dankworth, is a royal living in London, England, with a secret hobby as an Elvis Presley impersonator. After his valuable Picasso painting is stolen and grudgingly returned, he partners up with the former head of the Petronomous Import and Export smuggling organization and his new wife (Demetrius Othonos and Norma Wildes-Othonos). They identify at least twenty rare paintings and artifacts of private collectors to replace with fakes in order to lure the current boss of the art theft and smuggling company, Yiorgos, and his father, Gio. The staggering loss of nearly a billion is designed to force them to close up shop. Then plot twists occur… Filled with Action, Thrills, Romantic Entanglements, and the thoroughly mesmerizing world of Elvis Presley impersonators who are enlisted as Spies and Double Agents in the various capers.
