A cult hit in the author's native Britain, Kyril Bonfiglioli's Don't Point That Thing at Me, originally published some three decades ago, is a wickedly entertaining and veddy British account of one Hon. Charlie Mortdecai, fond of "art and money and dirty jokes and drink" and none too concerned about the laws he must break to keep himself in full possession of all of them. Add in an "anti-Jeeves" assistant named Jock Strapp, a gorgeous rich widow, a mad millionaire, a policeman who "likes hurting people, a lot" and dozens of other brilliant types-not to mention all kinds of shady deals-and the result is a sure-fire, acid-tongued winner.

Bonfiglioli's comic thriller series features low-life Charlie Mortdecai and his sidekick Jock Strapp. This initial 1972 outing is a mishmash of stolen artworks, secret police, and a hot young widow.
