A special edition of the first two novels featuring Jake Brody - Private Spy. Seven Day Fool The year is 1965 and Jake Brody Private Eye, is in desperate need of clients. When, an attractive woman enters his office and hires him, little does he realise that his week ahead is going to be one that has to be lived to be believed. Seven Day Fool takes Jake on a thrilling chase through the shadowy underworld of Manchester nightlife. From its hip café bars, such as The Cona, to the shady nightclubs where the Northern Mods liked to frequent, like the The Twisted Wheel. He is tasked with finding a missing Polish girl, but has just one week to do so, and no longer. The clock is ticking, ever faster, as fresh dangers come into play. The consequences of not finding her could, in turn, create a scandal for a ruling class still reeling from the Profumo affair. Gangsters, kidnapping, and murder are just a few of the hurdles he has to face. Will he manage to do what he needs to - or, will he end up the fool for just trying to do the right thing? Take It Or Leave It Its 1966 and Jake Brody finds himself once again drawn into situations that fate has determined for him. The private eye, based in Manchester, sees his life turned upside down when he is invited to London, for what he thinks is a formal appreciation for his help the previous year, to foil a scandalous plot (Seven Day Fool) . He is offered a job to help British Intelligence, and face an old adversary. The theft of the Jules Rimet trophy is possibly linked, and a cat and mouse mission embroils Jake into a truly international tale with Gangsters, Thieves, Spies and a beautiful woman. The job required is fraught with danger. He is initially given a choice to Take It Or Leave It. But, in truth there isn't a choice. He has to do what is expected of him. The consequences are both personal and a matter for national security, at a time when The Cold War has a chilling hold on the nation, and criminal activities serve to facilitate even greater scandals than the Profumo Affair. Also, there is something else at play, that could destabilise the United Kingdom for many years to come...
