I read a lot of 'classics' among other things, and remember reading a book years ago which I can't remember the author or title of. Can anyone help?
The plot centres around a group of painters and decoraters and there's a lot about them swindling the house owners, putting on less coats of paint, etc. It's set perhaps in the 19th century, certainly not a modern book.
I somehow think it might be by George Gissing, but really don't know.
Does it ring any bells? Thank you in advance
