The Harlequin: The Two Timer Series

Adam Potter returns to the gritty streets of Cargo City hoping to bury his past after a devastating betrayal by his cheating ex. Eager for a fresh start, he establishes his own private detective agency and recruits a spirited, flirtatious college student as his assistant. He expects typical minor cases, but his first assignment arrives in a truly bizarre fashion: dropping from a tree. Enter Patrick Valdez, a wealthy aristocrat with a penchant for cosplay and a dangerous secret. Patrick is caught in a web of blackmail spun by his predatory boyfriend, but the real nightmare begins with the appearance of a masked figure known as the Harlequin. When the mysterious assailant targets Patrick’s abuser, the chaos spills into the graveyard, leaving Adam to pull a terrified Patrick to safety. Soon, the police turn their sights on Patrick, convinced he is the mastermind orchestrating the Harlequin’s violence. Now, Adam finds himself caught between his messy history, a growing attraction to his client, and a deadly stalker hiding behind a smiling mask. To survive, Adam must navigate a treacherous landscape of deception to clear Patrick’s name before the Harlequin claims his next victim—and before Adam becomes the final piece of the puzzle.
