It can be tough working undercover for HM Revenue & Customs, but DJ Smith has more than a little help from her trained sniffer cat, Gorgonzola, a moth-eaten Persian with gourmet tastes and a mind of her own. This first investigation finds DJ and Gorgonzola on the trail of a heroin smuggling ring operation in and around Edinburgh. Their first port of call is the White Heather Hotel, owned by the formidable Morag Mackenzie. Beneath the innocent surface of the country house hotel eddies a sinister undercurrent. One death follows another. As sea mists gather, a deadly game of cat and mouse is played - but who will survive to fight another day?
Drink and drugs can be a lethal combination, as DJ Smith soon finds out when a master criminal's profits are threatened by her undercover role as butler to Sir Thomas Cameron-Blaik, the wealthy and respected owner of Sron Dubh distillery on the island of Islay. All DJ has to do is report to HMRC when Moran, a ruthless international drug baron arrives--but things don't go exactly to plan, for Gorgonzola's sensitive nose soon detects something much more sinister than drugs. Others who threaten Moran's multi-million pound master plan are eliminated, and one more will make no difference. Can DJ remain undetected long enough to identify Moran and make her escape?
Death and danger stalk undercover investigator DJ Smith when she is seconded to the Portuguese Drug Enforcement Agency on Madeira, island of orchids and the flamboyant bird of paradise flower. After Luis Gomes's body is found floating in Funchal harbour, Comandante Figueira blames her for a security lapse which jeopardized the success of anti-drug operation Boa Morte. Given a deadline to get results, DJ narrows the list of suspects, each of them with something to hide. But her investigations draw the attention of a ruthless killer to herself and her sniffer cat Gorgonzola. A tense end game takes place on the 2,000 foot cliffs of Cabo Girao, when DJ is faced with the hardest decision of her life.
When a murder is witnessed on a webcam at the Seabird Centre near Edinburgh, DJ Smith, undercover agent, knows that drug baron Hiram J. Spinks has returned to Scotland.

But Spinks is one step ahead of DJ and their battle of wits comes to a head at Edinburgh International Festival's fireworks display.
