This is the first of a planned trilogy of Paul Thomas capers. When a recently bereaved journalist meets up with an old friend for mutual comfort and sympathy, neither of them anticipate the events that follow. leading them into situations which threaten not only their own lives but those of their friends. Despite numerous brushes with the police, they rush headlong from one potentially disastrous situation to another. Noy without humour, the amateur crime busters entertain with their escapades.
