Tainted Legacy (Paperback) (ISBN-13: 9798215499085)

Sid Langdon, a newly-licensed private investigator, gets his first case--complete with a corpse and a million dollars in missing jewels. And he is tapped to find the answers by the very man who may be responsible for both! So who done it? Sid wades through a sordid quagmire of blackmail, adultery, and betrayal to find the answers. It's Sid's first case--it might well be his last!

This is where it all begins. Get in at the start of the Sid Langdon Mysteries as Sid, a seasoned insurance investigator but fledgling detective, gets his first case. Tag along as he stumbles from one lead to another. It's not pretty, but for his first time out, not bad either. Sid gets his man--kind of--and, more importantly, establishes himself as a trustworthy private eye who gets results. It is Sid's contacts from this first case that will eventually lead to his next, when once again he is off and running. Meet the characters in Sid's world--his lovely next door neighbor, who welcomes him with a casserole and becomes the foil for his rambling theories; the police lieutenant, who wonders how the most unlikely characters and hopeless scenarios wind up on Sid's doorstep; and then there's Max, who surveys Sid's world from his perch beside the terrace doors, always ready with a cheerful greeting; he's Sid's favorite cohort for classic movies on the late show.
