The private eye bringing psychic fraudsters to justice

Available for over a year

Bob Nygaard is a retired New York police officer-turned private detective who specialises in taking on self-proclaimed psychics, people who claim they have mystic powers and use that to defraud their clients of large sums of money. Like all good detective stories, this one starts with a drink in a bar. A doctor confided in him about being exploited by a notorious psychic for thousands of dollars. Bob did some digging and discovered that the psychic had manipulated many others and regularly managed to escape jail. There began a new life for Bob, and a cat-and-mouse chase across America to bring these fortune-tellers to justice.
