Or the Revenge of Monty Cristoff.

A man of high social circles, Gosden, is losing ground regarding his public reputation. The millionaire hires Sam to investigate Monty Cristoff to see why he has been ruining hin. Cristoff has got word of the investigation, and calls Sam to his lavish home to share his side of the story.

Taken for a ride, Sam is given the option to be bought off, or be thumped on the head. Not to give much away, but Sam must be short a thump or two on his head this week. Getting the upper hand, Sam confronts the high society folk in his recent past to get a few things straight. True identities are discovered, but why the game of revenge, and the parallel to the tale of the Count of Monte Cristo?

A sell out by Gosden’s own wife could be the final blow that ruins him. Confronting Cristoff again, Sam learns deep, and long running family secrets. Will tempers flare? Can Sam stop a murder from needlessly going down?
