The Curious Case of the Kilchester Courier

Written on January 10th, 2012 by Adam in The Defective Detective

Chasing a parcel delivered to a neighbour, Clint is sucked into a remarkably civilised but mildly deranged crime scene. There he encounters almost-blackmail, not-actually prostitution, probable-sex scandals, genuine-imposters and the very real theft of something incredibly important.

Twice.

Will Clint be able to stay awake long enough to restore what has been stolen to its rightful owner and will he need to resort to his new book ‘The Agency’s Foundation in Private Investigation : Home Study Edition’ in order to solve the case?

These and literally three other questions are answered in the third Defective Detective outing ‘The Curious Case of the Kilchester Courier’.
