A tale of cunning plans with a little bit of Stockholm Syndrome and quite a bit of Murphy’s Law

There was Fatboy (arson) who wasn’t fat. There was Shorty (assault) who wasn’t short. There was Jason (fraud) who lived in a world of his own.

It had all seemed so simple when the man in the grey suit explained it – get the girl, hold the girl, take the money, release the girl. The kidnapping went according to plan but nothing is simple in life and Sara had plans of her own.

Marcus McKay intended to become Prime Minister but then the ransom note arrived.

Somehow Detective Inspector Mike Prescott had to sort it all out.

Then there was the mystery of Ferdinand the Cow.
