Night thief. Adventures in Amsterdam. Yuen K.

Charlie Howard is a popular (in wide circles) author of detective novels. And he is a popular (in narrow circles) professional thief, which performs only serious orders. When a mysterious American offers Charlie to steal two simple figurines for him in Amsterdam, Hovard does not immediately, but agrees, realizing that something is behind this order. And there really are a lot of things: the old story about the disappearance of diamonds, the bloody murder of a mysterious American, a lot of money, a hunt for Charlie himself, gangsters, police... The detective-war is turning into a detective thief. At the same time, three things are most concerned about: will he be able to get the greatest money? Will he be able to defend his good name for the writer? And finally - will he come out of the impasse, into which he was brought by the last, not yet completed novel?
