Works of: Fiction

Christmas is looming and Mac is on tenterhooks as he awaits the birth of his first grandchild. In order to pass the time, he reluctantly takes on the job of catching an office thief. However, he soon finds that something much more serious than petty larceny might be going on. He enlists the help of Leigh Marston and together they discover the awful truth.
The second case is that of a hunt for a missing heir. Mac discovers that the man he is looking for had disappeared seven years ago in suspicious circumstances. He was rich, successful and had a beautiful young wife, yet he appears to have walked out one evening and nothing had been heard from him since. His wife is in a hurry to declare him dead so that she can get her hands on her husband’s considerable fortune but Mac has his doubts. On reading the police reports, he suspects that the missing heir may well have been murdered and his wife is in the spotlight.
However, Mac is in for more than a few surprises and a festive season that he will never forget.
