Publisher's Synopsis
At the insistence of his fashionista wife, the currently heavily pregnant Amy May, streetwise chancer Fitzroy Maclean Angel has joined Rudgard & Blugden Confidential Investigations, a previously all-female private detective agency - although the vintage crime paperbacks he refers to as 'training manuals' still haven't sold him on the idea of having to go to work every day. His latest assignment is seemingly simple - to track down an elderly client's long-lost first love - but before long he is up to his eyes in problems, including dealing with a teenage internet scammer, being kidnapped on a motor-cruiser and getting caught up in a shoot-out between two deranged OAPs ...
