Kansas City Star | 02/14/2007 | PIs face hot time for love gone cold: "Private investigator Philip Marlowe in Raymond Chandler’s The Big Sleep
Valentine’s seasons run together for Rick Swank, but one case sticks in his mind like the wrong cologne on a dangerous red dress.
The investigation was over. The wealthy husband — the client’s almost always wealthy, because who else can afford by-the-hour surveillance fees? — had one more job for Swank’s team of private investigators.
The husband took his wife out for a Valentine’s dinner. Nice restaurant. Only, the man at the next table was a process server, a usual sideline of investigators. He had the divorce papers.
“I think the husband waited until she’d eaten enough dinner to upset her stomach,” Swank recalled.
“It’s all psychological warfare.”"
