A Professional Vendetta:
Eccentric Oxford University Professor “Eddie” Higgins is the ‘scientific adviser’ to a local cosmetics company run by its new and vivacious chief executive, Isobel Johnson. It doesn’t begin well. “Yours is an industry dogged by exaggerated claims, impossible claims and false claims,” he tells her. So, can they work together to expose the Asian gang that has infiltrated the company?
Crook Chase:
Small-time New York private detective Harry Donovan has personal and financial problems and when rumour suggests there's a bounty on the head of a big-time wanted fraudster linked to the jewellery business, Harry decides to track him down. Cyprus is where he thinks the action is but Harry has never been out of America before, needs help and things get complicated. It’s not just fake jewellery but fraud on international construction projects involving banks, lawyers and a much wider criminal network. Harry, out of his depth, depressed and facing bankruptcy over his personal, financial problems, starts to lose the plot.
His only solace in life is Beryl who runs his Harlem office but with two other private detectives already killed at the hands of the criminal gang can Harry survive long enough to claim a 250,000 dollar bounty?
