    About this ebook

    Jake is not long out of prison for violence and takes on any job he can get. He is also a private investigator, though he doesn't have a licence, despite what his fake qualifications state.

    Mrs Carson, his ex-teacher, hires him. They despise each other, but they forego their animosities for the sake of the job in hand. She wants him to find a missing schoolgirl by any means possible. In doing so, he comes face to face with perverts, rapists and gangsters.

    With little information to go on, he has to cut corners, which includes aggression.

    Along the way, he not only discovers the who's who of the underworld, but also who he really is. It's a far different picture than the self portrait he had painted of himself.

    Things come to a head when he confronts both the antagonists and his own demons.

    I was born in Glasgow, Scotland in 1964, but moved to Renfrew when I was seven. After wandering around various countries, working in numerous jobs, I met a woman In Lleida, Spain, who was crazy enough to put with my nonsense and married her. I now work as an English teacher as punishment for my past sins.
