Never Leave Loose Ends Roger Stuart Smith

Steve Gibbs is what is generally called 'A Fixer.'If you want something sorted out he is the man who would be called in. He is good at his job, being discreet yet successful, is well respected by his clients and proficient in getting the required results. The latest client, Carolyn Forrester, has an interesting proposition for him when she invites him to look into the mysterious death of her husband and the disappearance of another man which happened on the same day, both of whom were pivotal to her life. This happened three years previously during which time she had accepted her fate until photographs emerged of a mysterious man who had the same characteristics as the men he was asked to investigate. His interest is fired when the word 'Ghost' is used and it is enough to tempt him to accept. However, as he delves deeper into the circumstances concerning the events of that fateful day he uncovers information that is contrary to what he had been told and learns that even honest looking people can be economical with the truth. When the German Bundespolizei become interested in his investigations matters take a deadly turn when he learns that one of the men was not who he seemed and being a violent fugitive from most of Europe's police forces was not a person to get too involved with. Having become too immersed into the case Gibbs finds it hard to break away as he never likes to leave loose ends and therefore continues knowing that it could lead him into a deadly game of cat and mouse, the ending of which would only come at a price.
