DAVID J CHRISTOPHER - WHAT GOES AROUND

Where is Helen? When a wealthy ex pat mysteriously disappears from her sun drenched Greek island home, her friend Lucy has a bad feeling. Convinced of foul play, she persuades the reclusive hard drinking ex journalist Roydon to play detective. Roydon, an escapee from the rat race of London, lives alone on his shabby sailboat with his ouzo and his cat, Kitty. His initial reluctance to help Lucy gradually subsides as the chalk and cheese pair discover disturbing truths that prove life in paradise is rarely everything it seems. The duo work together despite their significant differences in age and approach to life. Lucy learns much more than she wants to about Helen's secrets, and also Roydon's murky previous life. As the investigation gathers pace, they find themselves being drawn into increasingly dangerous circles. This Book will appeal to anyone who likes character led mysteries set in exotic places. Ideal as a holiday read. PRAISE FOR WHAT GOES AROUND "It's got legs" – the author's ex-wife. "Kept me guessing until the end" "The relationship between Roydon and Lucy is both hilarious and touching"
