IN THIS THREE-BOOK BOX SET:

BOOK 1: THE CON MAN
A cameraman is a victim of a hit-and-run on a Hollywood film set and the only completed negative of the film is missing. Film producer Elmer Myers has put everything on the line to make this highly expensive film. It’s his last chance to save his failing studio. He requests the help of former detective Paul Rivington to crack the case. But as the bodies pile up, Rivington is in a race against time to save the studios and the lives of the crew.

BOOK 2: WHITE WIG
One rainy night in south London, a man is shot dead on a bus. With only four people on board, this looks like an open-and-shut case. The bus conductor is arrested for the murder, but his fiancée is convinced he is innocent. She asks Rivington for help to clear his name and save him from the gallows. As Rivington digs into the case, the murdered man’s fortune means there are plenty with a motive. To ensure the true killer faces the noose, Rivington must pull out all stops to solve the case.

BOOK 3: THE FRIGHTENED MAN
Somebody has tried to kill Samuel Coyne not once, not twice . . . but three times. Coyne says he doesn’t know anyone who’d want him dead. But his house is fitted out like a fortress — he’s clearly afraid. Rivington agrees to protect Coyne and find out who is trying to kill him. But when an intruder is captured in Coyne’s house and calls Coyne a completely different name, Rivington knows he’s not being told the whole truth. What terrible secret is Coyne prepared to die for?

MEET PAUL RIVINGTON
Former Scotland Yard detective, Paul Rivington, is a tall, clean-cut man with a razor-sharp mind. He resigned from the Met so he could take the cases that interested him, but the Yard did rely on him when they’re at their wits end. Now, his adventures take him from London to Hollywood and beyond, from film-set glamour to the London underworld and into the path of the toughest criminals.
