Synopsis

Here are the third and fourth episodes concerning criminal investigations in Paris by Alice, a twenty-six year old French psychologist, and Conrad, a South African pensioner in his late sixties. In the third episode, Alice introduces Conrad to one of her patients, Julie, who has a serious problem because her handicapped mother wants to leave the old age home where Julie had placed her. Julie is afraid of losing her boyfriend should her mother come to live with her. Not wanting to jeopardise her love life Julie desperately wants to find a solution. Her boyfriend offers to help solve the problem but the situation gets out of hand. Once again our two investigators find themselves involved in a murder riddle and end up by helping the police solve the case. In the fourth episode, Alice invites Conrad to meet one her patients, Gerard, who is a South African journalist hiding in Paris from political extremists in South Africa who have executed one of his colleagues in Johannesburg because he had criticised their activities. Later on, another fleeing colleague, Jeremiah, turns up in Paris and things go wrong. Once again, our two investigators find themselves involved in a murder riddle and end up by helping the police solve the case. What makes these two episodes interesting are the psychological and philosophical interactions between our two investigators and the various people concerned. The Conrad and Alice episodes can be read in any sequence and by old and young alike. There are neither gory nor erotic scenes. JJ Sandras was born in 1947. He grew up in South Africa. He began to travel widely at the age of 19 and has lived on several continents. He draws upon his experiences in foreign lands when describing the why and wherefore of our passage on this earth.
