Confessions of a Society Spy



  • David Patrick Columbia reveals the secret adventures of top private eye Frank Monte

    When I was growing up I always thought I'd make a good private eye. I was nosy enough; I still am. I had a mother who used to go through my sister's drawers, which I thought was an interesting habit - until she started going through mine and asking too many questions that I considered none of her business. Eventually the notion seemed childish. Jack Nicholson in Chinatown walking around with a sliced-up nose; who needs a sliced-up nose? If you need a detective, call the police. Several years ago, however, that notion was altered when a bilious and crusty-looking elderly Englishman, who in his youth had been married to an Astor, told me that his former in-laws and others like them (i.e., the very rich) used private eyes all the time. Detectives, he called them. And why?
