The mystery series with more than 40 million copies in print continues with pulp fiction's favorite PI on the hunt for a missing harem.
A petroleum magnate—a snake oil salesman at heart—finds himself in a gusher of a business deal with a shifty-eyed Sheik. The businessman needs some leverage but how do you get at a guy who has everything? You could kidnap his wife but he has six! Sure enough the girls are gone and the Sheik is freaked. The friction between the two sides is setting off sparks and the plot threatens to explode. For our trigger-happy gumshoe it's another case of burning ambition, white-hot action, bounty in the billions and beauties in the backroom. Shell Scott is used to flexing his grip on both con men and dangerous broads but this case is just getting out of hand. Our peerless P.I. must find the girls before the greedy goons find him. Leave it to Shell Scott to find a sure thing when all the bets are against him.
The Sure Thing is the 39th book in the Shell Scott Mysteries, but you may enjoy reading the series in any order.
