The_Symbologist Posted May 10, 2010 Share Posted May 10, 2010 I was wondering if there are any books on a jewelry thief around? preferably fictional Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Janet Posted May 11, 2010 Share Posted May 11, 2010 The most obvious one is Raffles by E W Hornung but it depends if you like 'classics' as it's probably rather dated. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
chesilbeach Posted May 11, 2010 Share Posted May 11, 2010 If Tomorrow Comes by Sidney Sheldon is about a jewel thief. Not my usual sort of book, but I was an impressionable teenager (with a crush on Tom Berenger) when I saw it the miniseries and thought it was great fun, so read the book as well.

BookJumper Posted May 11, 2010 Share Posted May 11, 2010 This is a wild stab as I've only read the blurb of this one, but The Coral Thief by Rebecca Stott might fit your bill. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I loved that book when I read it (I was in my teens too! ) Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
pickle Posted May 12, 2010 Share Posted May 12, 2010 Oh, so me too! I loved that book when I read it (I was in my teens too! ) Me too (dreamy - I was an impressionable teenager) I am pretty sure an early Nora Roberts was about a jewel thief, I think it was called Hot Ice Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
dave165 Posted May 13, 2010 Share Posted May 13, 2010 You could try Lawrence Block's Bernie Rhodenbarr series. Not jewelry specifically in every story but entertaining all the same. http://www.fantasticfiction.co.uk/b/lawrence-block/ Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
