Publisher's Synopsis
Who would not wish to be the man in charge of Ankh-Morpork's Royal Mint AND the bank next door? It's a job for life. But as former conman Moist von Lipwig is learning, the life is not necessarily for long. The Chief Cashier is almost certainly a vampire. There's something nameless in the cellar, and it turns out that the Royal Mint runs at a loss. A three-hundred-year-old wizard is after his girlfriend, and he's about to be exposed as a fraud, but the Assassins' Guild might get him first. Everywhere he looks he's making enemies. What he SHOULD be doing is...MAKING MONEY!
