Watching Out (Fran Varady 5)

Fran Varady fell into private detective work by accident rather than design. Now she's got a 'real' job at a trendy pizzeria, she's back on track with her acting ambitions, and she's even found a nice flat to rent. But things aren't as straightforward as they seem. The job, for a start: there's something rather sinister about the way the pizzeria is run. And the play rehearsals aren't going well. As if all this doesn't bring problems enough, Fran has rashly undertaken to help a young boy, illegally in the country, find an elusive people-trafficker called Max. When the trail Fran is following is suddenly and tragically interrupted by a horrifying death, she finds herself up against dangerous men and a ruthless organisation.

“Praise for Ann Granger's previous crime novels: 'Characterisation, as ever with Granger, is sharp and astringent'”

The Times
'The plot is neat and ingenious, the characters rounded and touchingly credible, and the writing of this darkly humorous but humane and generous novel fluent, supple and a pleasure to read' Ham and High
'The reader can expect a treat. Lively, different and fun' Yorkshire Post
'Ann Granger's skill with character together with her sprightly writing make the most of the story....she is on to another winner' Birmingham Post
'One of crime fiction's most engaging heroines' Yorkshire Post
