If you have a big bank account and an even bigger problem, you're going to want Private on the case.
Former US Marine Jack Morgan runs Private, a renowned investigation company with branches around the globe. It is where you go when you need maximum force and maximum discretion. The most influential men and women on the planet come to Jack daily – and his investigators use the most advanced forensic tools to make and break their cases.
In L.A., Jack is already deep into the investigation of a multimillion-dollar gambling scandal and the killings of eighteen schoolgirls when he learns of a horrific murder close to home: his best friend's wife and Jack's former lover, has been killed. It nearly pushes him over the edge. Instead, Jack pushes back and devotes all of Private's resources to tracking down her killer.
And Jack doesn't have to play by the rules.

*A Promising Start*
Introducing Jack Morgan. He is now the owner of a company called ‘Private’ they are who you call when you want to the best to investigate a problem. They are discreet and hold many secrets of the rich and famous high profile clients. They are professional and have many contacts and have access to the most high tech forensic equipment at their disposal.
On this occasion they are trying to find out who is murdering schoolgirls, the suspect’s trap is to gain access digitally by cloning the girls mobile phones and gaining the trust of the girls by posing as a friend in the victim’s contacts and asking to meet up. Running along side this is the murder of his best friend’s wife, who is someone who Jack had a previous relationship with.
Now the beauty of their company is that they are not beholden to all the rules that law enforcement have to abide by. A very engaging story that ran at a great pace, I could have easily got through this in one sitting.
Boring!
The voice of the reader was tedious. I was so bored with it I couldn’t remember what had been read. Just shut off completely.Ted
