It was autumn in venice when victor first heard of prosper and bo. the canals, gleaming in the sun, dappled the ancient brickwork with gold. but the wind was blowing ice-cold air from the sea, reminding the venetians that winter was approaching. even the air in the alleyways tasted of snow, and only the wings of the carved angels and dragons high up on the rooftops felt any real warmth from the pale sun.
for the time being, the city still stood firmly on its wooden legs. victor leaned against his window and looked out through the dusty glass. surely no other place on earth was more proud of its beauty than venice, and as he watched its spires and domes, each caught the sun as if trying to outshine one another. whistling a tune, victor turned away from the window and walked over to his large mirror. just the weather for trying out my new disguise, he thought, as the sun warmed the back of his sturdy neck. he had bought this new treasure only the previous day—an enormous mustache, so dark and bushy that it would have made any self-respecting walrus extremely jealous. he stuck it carefully under his nose and stood on his toes to make himself taller. he turned to the left and to the right and became so engrossed in his reflection that he only heard the footsteps on the stairs when they stopped outside his door.
clients. blast! why are they bothering me now of all times?
with a deep sigh he sat behind his desk. he heard voices whispering outside his door. they're probably admiring my nameplate, victor thought. it was a handsome, shiny black sign with his name engraved in gold letters:

victor getz
private detective
investigations of any kind
adapted from the thief lord by cornelia funke
