1992. Former members of Customs & Excise tell Nick Storey, now Director Outfield, that they believe that there is a secret network of corrupt VAT officials doing corrupt deals with City finance businesses, led by a former Deputy Chairman. Forced to tread warily to avoid tipping anyone off, Nick has to use whatever opportunities come to hand, including a sex-discrimination claim and a chance meeting at a philosophy lecture. But those he suspects show great skill in deflecting investigation, not least because, as Nick begins to believe, they have tentacles in whatever parts of the Department might discover what they are up to. It is only when Rosemary uses some of her Fraud Squad officers to investigate some of the firms involved, that a way into the network is found. Undeterred by snakes posted through their letterbox, Nick and Rosemary have to dash to the tax haven of Guernsey to nail the ringleaders, so that the Ring of Gyges finally stops providing invisibility.In a rich man's world is the thirtieth-second book published in a series of detective stories set mostly in HM Customs & Excise, by Richard Hernaman Allen, a former Commissioner
