When a centuries-old order of nuns is disbanded, its multi-million assets will go to the Vatican. Realising this, Margot, Kristi and Janet, three alumni of one of the sisters' schools, devise a 'cannot-fail' scam to gain control of the fortune - the Vatican being the only loser. This mild thriller is imaginative and ingenious and quite a good read, despite a rather pedestrian style and the indiscriminate use of colloquialisms. Excellent for travelling and holiday reading.
