Some of these women see me as a knight in shining armour, but I'm just a businessman with a heart. Honeytraps and spy phones, sexpionage and integrity testing Richard Martinez uses it all in his private detective business and reveals his surveillance secrets in this compelling book. It's not just about catching out love rats and stalking stalkers: Martinez also helps parents who want to know if their teenagers have joined gangs and women in fear for their lives if they leave abusive husbands. Often dramatic but sometimes hilarious, these true stories of a P.I.'s experiences offer insights into a morally dubious society and controversial truth-finding services. AUTHOR: Ex-RAF officer Richard Martinez started his rapidly growing Expedite Private Detective Agency just outside London in 1999. Still only 38 years old, he speaks regularly on BBC radio and stations from New York to Sydney about honeytrapping and the private detective world, covering subjects from the Madeleine McCann case to stolen identities. SELLING POINTS: A blockbuster movie based on the Magnum P.I. series is scheduled for release in 2009, which will boost public interest in private investigation work. The book will offer the opportunity to win a competition to 'solve your own private detective case' by tracking clues hidden in its pages. A recent survey reveals almost half of affluent divorcing couples in the UK engaged the services of a private investigator. Controversial: is honeytrapping a case of entrapment or fair integrity testing? Is private investigation snooping or truth finding?
