"Maggie, I Love You", a new book by Ronald Higgins, has been released by Dorrance Publishing Co., Inc.

Brent Stewart, once a military policeman in Saigon during the Vietnam War in 1975, is vice president for an insurance company in New York City. All he ever wanted was to become a private detective, but he couldn't pursue it because of financial reasons. Fortunately for him, winning the million-dollar lottery and investing the money in the stock market brings him into the limelight of being an independent wealthy bachelor in New York City, living a life of every person's dreams.

He resigns from the insurance company and opens his own private investigation firm. One day Alex, Brent's co-policeman in Vietnam, seeks his help about the disappearance of his wife, Maggie. But Brent's team has to deal with a Mafia group based in Hong Kong, in connection with Maggie being missing and her father's blunder against the gang.

In "Maggie, I Love You" the story of a woman who is too desperate to turn from rags to riches even if it affects her family is told. This book also tells how power and dedication to work, as exemplified by Brent Stewart, the detective in charge, can easily solve any case.
