“I, Oz Blackstone, didn’t go looking for fame: it jumped out of an alleyway and mugged me with a fistful of high denomination notes. When I recovered, I found that I was a movie star, married to a successful businesswoman, and about to make a leap into the Seriously Big Time.

I got my first taste of bitterness when I found my ex–wife Primavera Phillips drenched in her own tears, her life in ruins, cheated out of her fortune, and robbed of her baby boy by his lying, cheating, con–man father. What else could I do but help? Maybe I should have called for help myself, or stuck to the game plan of looking after number one. Instead I set out on a voyage of dark intrigue and wild discovery that would turn my life upside down… ”Quintin Jardine offers plenty of treachery and carnal intrigue in this first–rate mystery series featuring private investigator Osbert “Oz” Blackstone and his alluring on–again–off–again partner Primavera Phillips.
