Eh. It was okay.
It was like a watered-down cross between Tom Sharpe and Donald Westlake.

I'm pretty sure I read this, but can't remember it; is it Venice or spies? Or neither. But it's not a D&P book, right?

Neither. It's kind like Blott on the Landscape, but with a robbery attempt thrown in--the main character gets blackmailed into helping a gang of thieves (they got him with the old get-'em-wasted-and-take-dirty-pictures scheme) and they get chased by lions. Also, there's an orgy.

Oh yeah. That one. Very memorable.
