Danger Magnet: A Hospital thriller (The Laura Curtis, Female Private Investigator series (1) by Lee Hobart
In this fast paced
book, author Lee Hobart introduces the feisty, humorous mother of two Laura
Curtis.
While shopping in
New York on the last full day of her holiday, Laura puts herself at risk to
rescue a young boy caught in the middle of a gunfight. He turns out to be the
grandson of a Russian gangster, someone who will prove to be a very useful
contact; especially when Laura, compelled by a strong sense of duty, begins to
act as a female private investigator.
Now back in
England, Laura returns to her middle-management job at a busy Cambridge
hospital. She soon discovers that during her three-week absence changes have
been made, changes that lead to medical
mystery and suspense. Having to face extreme danger on her own soil is the last
thing she expected.
While acting to
protect herself and her work colleagues Laura finds herself investigating a
powerful, utterly ruthless, gang of East European criminals. At times
circumstances oblige her to step outside the law, at other times she feels like
she’s acting as an undercover cop…none of which had been part of her original
job description!
Still, she realizes
she’s getting a real buzz out of it! So much so, she starts to consider a
career change, thinking of herself as Laura Curtis, female private detective.
