Extended description

An exciting crime adventure set in Monaco, London and West Wales.
An American child is kidnapped in Monaco.
The British government is about to license oil exploration in the Irish Sea.
The only person to see a link is Ella Crossley, a young oil trader in London.
But Ella doesn't want to get involved. She certainly doesn't want to get involved with the irritating, American environmentalist Nick Jardine, uncle of the kidnapped child. But when the action moves from Monaco to London and then to West Wales and an attempt is made on her life, Ella discovers that the only people she can trust are a group of tepee dwelling eco warriors. And as she and Nick Jardine get closer to finding the hostages and to exposing a government licensing fraud so it becomes imperative for the perpetrators to stop them. Permanently.

A departure for Helen Carey, spills, thrills and dirty dealing, Slick Deals pays off in dividends.'

Review by: Marc Mordey on March 08, 2012 :
Slick Deals represents quite a departure for Helen Carey (I have read - and loved - her WW2 series Lavender Road et al)but for me it is a welcome departure - this book kicks off in Monaco, moves to London and ends up in a beautiful part of Wales (I know because I live there!)If you lke Dick Francis, Ben Elton and Kate Atkinson then I think you will find some of the characterisitics of these writers, but written in the author's own unique voice. Oil, environmental issues, the threat to marine life all figure in an exciting, suspenseful and witty combination of adventure and intrigue.
