    About this ebook

    Ryan Parish PI is engaged by lawyer Maggie Clark to investigate her client's claim that he's being framed for murdering a sex worker. The police case looks watertight to Ryan, but he doesn't let that stop him spending their client's money to see if there is a possibility he could be telling the truth.

Now he's married and has two grown children. He worked as a teacher, an insurance agent, a banker and a public servant. Now, he gets to write every day instead. He is the author of the Inspector West and Stella Bruno Investigates crime series; the Living Alone series, for men who find themselves alone at the end of a long term relationship; and the Everyday Business Skills series for people looking to take advantage of his knowledge and skills. As a mystic, he has written several books which explores some of life's deeper questions, including Sharing the Journey: Reflections of a Reluctant Mystic, and My Life is My Responsibility: Insights for Conscious Living.
