Aided by his assistant Sandra and her teenage son, George soon realises that Lucy is sneaking off to the apartment of an older man, but perhaps not for the reasons one might suspect.Then an unfaithful wife he had been following is found dead. As his investigation continues— enlivened by a mild stabbing and the unwanted intervention and attention of Detective Inspector Vicky Stubbing—George begins to wonder if all the threads are connected...

About the Author
E.G. Rodford is the crime-writing pseudonym of an award-winning author living in Cambridge, England. Rodford writes about the seedier side of the city where PI George Kocharyan is usually to be found.
Review
“A real discovery – a quirky and persuasive new entry in the ranks of British crime fiction, which introduces a distinctive private eye in the sardonic George Kocharyan.” - Barry Forshaw, Crime Time
“An absolute delight – a gumshoe thriller that reminded me of why I enjoy Raymond Chandler's classic PI books so much.” - Steven Dunne, author of A Killing Moon
“A controlled, artful crime story starring an arch PI and a host of acutely-observed characters. A treat.” - Conrad Williams, author of Dust and Desire
“An incredibly labyrinthine and clever mystery” - Comic Book Resources
“Rodford's sense of delight in transposing American noir to modern, multicultural Cambridge is palpable” - Reviewing the Evidence
