Under Suspicion

Join DJ Smith an her feline friend Gorgonzola, heroes of the acclaimed No Suspicious Circumstances , as they prepare to go undercover once more. DJ Smith is sent on her most daunting task to date. After the murder of an undercover agent, it is DJ's duty to take over where he left off – infiltrating a suspected money-laundering operation run by the formidable Ambrose Vanheusen. A ruthless criminal he may be, but DJ knows he has an Achilles heel: an obsession with his Persian Cat. DJ's passport into Vanheusen's empire comes in the form of her unlikely sidekick, Gorgonzola, a moth-eaten ginger Persian and sniffer cat extraordinaire. Under Suspicion confirms identical twin sisters Helen and Morna Mulgray as top notch crime writers – after all, two heads are better than one... When a Customs and Revenues Officer on the brink of exposing a huge money-laundering outfit is murdered in Tenerife, there is only one team capable of ensuring Operation Canary Creeper's continuance and success. DJ Smith must use all of her cunning and experience to trap the devious Ambrose Vanheusen; her greatest asset, however, comes in the moth-eaten shape of her Persian cat Gorgonzola, since Vanheusen's one weakness is his love of the breed.Going undercover as a PA for Vanheusen's company Exclusive, retailer of luxury homes and suspected front for darker purposes, DJ is in charge of organising excursions for the prospective purchasers - some are innocently enjoying their holidays, but are others complicit in Vanheusen's schemes. Pompous writer Rudyard Scott, elderly Victoria Knight...something about Millie Prentice doesn't seem to add up, and Deborah is instantly antagonistic towards the arrogant Herbert G. Wainwright III...Disguises, cat-fights and narrow escapes make "Under Suspicion" a fast-paced and funny return to DJ and Gorgonzola on their follow-up mission to No Suspicious Circumstances.
