Good and the Vanishing Act — Ben Westerham

London based private investigator David Good has been asked by a new client to track down his wife, who has walked out on him with fifty thousand pounds in her handbag and not been seen since. Easy enough, thinks Good, but he’s about to find himself part of a magic show, where more than his sense of humour may be about to disappear.When a member of Her Majesty’s tax inspectorate with ambitions of her own makes him an unwelcome offer he can’t refuse, things become a whole lot more complicated. And it doesn’t help that he soon finds himself being distracted by the amorous advances of the kind of woman he’d normally think of as being out of his league.Events then take a sinister turn that leaves Good wondering if he hasn’t been looking in entirely the wrong place and that he might need his very own wand if he’s going to lift the vanishing spell that’s been cast over this case.Join David Good in his latest romp across 1980s London.Westerham’s writing is tight, smooth to read, carries great descriptions and all with a dry wit and wry humor.
