Tripled Exposure - E-book - ePub

Top fashion photographer Harry Page watches his latest model waltz across his lounge stark naked, and thinks what a lucky man he is: fortune, fame, and as much nooky as he can handle, from some of the greatest looking women in the world. But then his phone rings, and that happy, sett;ed world is shattered by the three words uttered by his sister,  Sheena, who, as far as he knew, was on her sheep ranch in the outback of Oz: "Dad has disappeared.'His father, the owner of one of the most lucrative shipping lines in the country, had banished Harry from the house and from the family when he'd had to leave university, not believing or wanting to understand what had caused his problems.
Why should he get involved - the old man had told him he was no longer a member of the family? But Sheena tells him she is in England, and has been looking after their father, who has been ill. Swearing under his breath, and against his every  inclination, Harry agrees to travel home, and see what he can do. Being forced to take over the company, in his father's absence, is the very last thing in the world that he wants, but he has no choice.
When he arrives at the house, he finds Sheena unconscious, and her part-naked body, an uncomfortable sight to him, makes him believe that she has been raped. At the hospital, it turns out that that has not happened, but that she was attacked shows him how determined their enemies are. At the works, he finds out that there have been many incidents of fires and accidents, causing death and financial problems.
His father has been threatened, but refused to sell the company. Harry believes that is why he has disappeared.  More accidents, and direct threats to him and to his model culminate with her violent death, and it has been made to look as if Harry has killed her. He proves that he did not, and wins the unlikely support of the police, but they are unable to stop the gang that wants the shipping line. Harry investigates further, and finds the house in whose cellar his father is being held and tortured, but the tables are turned, and he is made prisoner, and the house is set on fire over him.
The final twist shatters every illusion he ever had.
