G. Baxter and Flint Case: Crossbreed vs Pedigree
()
About this ebook
When a tramp with an Oxford accent calls on G. Baxter and Flint Private Investigators to find his crossbreed dog, our dynamic duo consider this one case not worth investigating.
However, when pedigree dogs also start disappearing they have a rethink. Should they concentrate on finding the crossbreed with an IQ higher than the average pooch, or treat both cases with equal priority?
After a short discussion, resulting in a division of labour, poo bags at the ready, they go in search of the dognappers.

Chapter One
Georgina stood arms folded, surveying the office Flint, her partner, had gone behind her back and rented. And she had to admit it was a big improvement on their present place of business. It was twice the size, which meant they would no longer be under one another’s feet when they had clients. It was also in a good area, close to the city centre.
She mulled over the fact that first impressions were important, and the reception area had that covered in buckets full. It was light, airy and it didn’t overlook any other building. Yes, Georgina had to admit, Flint had done the right thing renting the place, even if she didn’t like to admit it.
Well, What do you think now you’ve seen the place?
he asked.
Georgina shrugged her shoulders. Suppose it is an improvement,
she admitted grudgingly.
He put his arm round her shoulder. Come on, say it… there’s no comparison, is there?
he said.
Georgina turned to look at the man she had only recently taken on as a partner. He was over six feet tall, broad at the shoulder, narrow at the hips, and although he wasn’t the handsomest of men, he had a smile that could light up a room. He was also good at his job, and Georgina had no doubt that with him by her side, G. Baxter and Flint, Private Investigators would be going places.
All we need now are clients,
she said.
The day they moved in Alison, the receptionist, dropped a bomb shell. I’m sorry to have tell you this but I am temporarily handing in my notice,
she said.
What do you mean, temporarily? You’ve only just returned from a year’s maternity leave,
huffed Georgina.
I mean, I’m not leaving for good Miss Baxter, only until Verity starts proper nursery school. But you needn’t worry. I won’t be leaving you in the lurch, I’ve arranged for Sonia, my best friend, to stand in for me until I come back,
she said.
Georgina, gobsmacked at the girl’s audacity, didn’t know what to
