  A GEORGE KOCHARYAN NOVEL

  E.G. RODFORD

  Meet George Kocharyan, Cambridge Confidential Services’ one and only private investigator. Amidst the usual jobs following unfaithful spouses, he is approached by the glamorous Sylvia Booker, who fears that her daughter Lucy has fallen in with the wrong crowd. Aided by his assistant Sandra and her teenage son, George soon discovers that Sylvia has good reason to be concerned. Then an unfaithful wife he had been following is found dead. As his investigation continues—enlivened by a mild stabbing and the unwanted attention of Detective Inspector Vicky Stubbing—George begins to wonder if all the threads are connected…
