Without a Penny

Book 6 in the Penny series finds Ben Pollock (aka Ben Matthews) recovering from the aftermath of an eventful birthday party. Revelations about his past life come in the guise of Austin Prentice and Ben's ex-girlfriend, Mona, who is now married to Prentice.

Their son Bengy Prentice is the mirror image of Ben's eldest son Luke. Standing together with Luke's twin sister Lucy, they could be taken for triplets!

Ben's life is in turmoil, and is made worse by the disappearance of his wife Rebecah and their children. Unable to contact them, Ben closes up their villa in UAE, sells off their belongings, ships their dogs back to the UK, and goes in search of them.

What he discovers is one of his worst fears, when he learns that the people in his life are not who they seem. Ben is faced with yet more decisions. Should he confess the truth, or let sleeping dogs lie?

Without a penny is how this episode in his life began. How will it end?
