Mack Breaks The Case - Paperback

by Annabelle Indge (Narrated by), John Holmes (Author)

Twenty years in the seaside town of Brighton, England, has given Paz Wheat the notion he's seen it all as a private investigator. But that's before young 'wild spirit' Alison ('Mack') tumbles bewildered and unannounced into his office. For the buttoned-up Anglo-American there's nothing more unnerving than a touch of the random, but what does this enigmatic bohemian want? Surely not the job that hasn't even been advertised yet? It's a mystery and he dislikes mysteries until they're solved, and then he loves them.

Thus begins a relationship that changes both: the solitary man wedded to his work and the firebrand living with her long-term girlfriend. Paramount to them are the cases they handle sometimes intricate, always intriguing, like The Chagall Lithograph, The Shadow Yacht, A Box Of Air, and The Everything Man. They investigate strange disappearances - missing persons, but also artworks - and grapple with the trickiest of fraudsters and chancers.
