Sacking Robbie Stevens

eBook Sacking Robbie Stevens, back cover blurb

Fired? Sacked? Dismissed? Given the Boot? Shown the Door?

No, none of those is adequate - he’s going to be escorted to the door flanked by two black uniformed security men. This after being given 5 minutes to clear his desk. The new Managing Director is making a statement about company loyalty and our man is his chosen victim. Even worse, he’s at the far end of the large open plan office so, sandwiched between the security men, it’s the long walk of shame past his now former colleagues.

Will he slope quietly away, tail between legs?

No, not our hero! Read how his rebellious exit and its aftermath changes the life of a number of people as our once well regarded young design engineer morphs into a private eye of zero experience. He’s been hired to work the sleaze, this being the “not when the client is present” term for erring partner cases. Also known as the stained underwear trail.

Set mostly in the Norfolk Broads there will be humour, tragedy and boating as we accompany him in his first 15 months as a private detective. On the way we’ll meet Ginger Drinkwater, Anna, Louisa, Luscious Lexus, Joe, Lee, Alexander the Weight and other characters. As a taster take the Preview option to immediately download the Prologue in epub format which can be viewed in almost all eReaders - I use the excellent ReadEra app which is both free and ad free!
