Book reviewed live on bookshow by Brian Lowen March 2014. This is Brians review:
This book is one
of the series featuring Kate Brannigan, a private eye, and her boy- friend
Richard who lives next door.
There was only one
reason why Kate would let Richard help out with an investigation into a car
sales fraud and that was because nothing bad could happen. How wrong they were
because Richard finishes up in a police cell wrongly convicted of stealing a
luxury car that just happened to have two large bags of cocaine in the boot.
To make matters
worse, Richard’s son, from a former marriage, is due to visit, which means that
Kate has to take on the job of looking after him. She enlists the help of some
of her friends as child-minders as she sets off on the task of tracking down
the criminals who left the drugs in the car. The Police, assuming Richard is
guilty, are not really interested in following up the case, so it is up to Kate
to work on her own, calling in favours from friends in other connected
occupations.
A good story, a
bit vague at times, with not much action until the last few chapters, but a
good gentle read if you like detective stories.
