The Professional, by Robert B. Parker:
To each his own. Works for me. Unless, of course, it results in murder as it does in Spenser series novel THE PROFESSIONAL. Will I, Boston private investigator extraordinaire, convince ever charming Gary to stop blackmailing four of his many rich, married, enthusiastic sexual partners? You bet. But when the husband of one takes two in the head and his widow forms a ménage à trois with Gary and his girl, soon to become body number two, my hackles rise. Then more related killings occur. All unintended consequences. Suffice it to say I solve the crimes and, thankfully, remain monogamous.
