The Marvellous Boy (3) (Cliff Hardy) - Softcover
It's no secret that the people who hire Hardy have nowhere else to turn—and Lady Catherine needs her heir to be found now
Lady Catherine presides over the declining fortunes of the Chatterton estate, which is lacking a suitable heir. When she hears of a grandson she never knew, Cliff Hardy takes the job, reluctantly, of finding him. From the run-down boarding houses of Darlinghurst to the social set of Canberra, Hardy finds the case forcing him into some of the strangest roles a private detective has ever had to play.
