The Scent of Danger

Barry Bigley has just set up as a private detective and the last thing he needs, besides a lack of clients, is constant interference from a mother obsessed with cleaning, a father desperate to appear on television, a fiance eager for marriage, and a threatening landlord. So when the daughter of a rich diamond merchant is kidnapped, it should be Barry s chance to overcome all obstacles and hit the big time. Of course, it would help if he had the faintest idea of how a private detective goes about his business.
