His resume was incredible - 10 year veteran of the French Foreign Legion, seven trips down the Amazon and back, member of the Royal Society of Astrophysics, ascender of all 14 eight-thousanders (Nanga Parbat twice within the same year), 4 time world acey-duecy champion, New York Times Best Selling Author (twice, once in 1986 for his compelling semi-autobiographical "Selling Girl Scout Cookies At The Beach" which climbed as high as #4 and again in 1992 for the Mythpunk novel "The Woman With The Razor Sharp Bosom," which was released under his pen name Taffeta Ravensclaw and spent three consecutive weeks at #7), and even twice being included as a "for consideration" nominee as Horticulturist of the Year (1991, 2003) for his work with Rose hybrids.
Which made his murder all the more interesting to Detective Ronald Posturial of the Antwerp Federal Police. Interesting enough for him to request that the General Commissioner supply him with a specialized staff and the necessary budget to engage in a worldwide manhunt for his murderer.
Well, that and the fact that the victim was the father that had abandoned Detective Ronald Posturial when he was but 6 months old.
