Obvious if you read the other stories, it is the Uncovered Policeman's baby.

I'll put in the missing facts in the next edition and you will get the rewrite automatically (the joy of e-books).A tale of a fun filled winter for the denizens of the sunny Rags to Riches world!The fifth story in the Rags to Riches series, can be read as a standalone book.

The unfazed young woman at the door knows who he is though, "Good evening Mr Adiscombe." her first words give that much away!
This is the sixth story in the Rags to Riches series but can be read as a stand-alone book.
Rags and Bea are on the return trip from their adventure in the Caribbean paradise of St Maarten. On the island, they stayed at the famous Club Orient, all expenses paid, while they helped Bea’s long-lost Uncle Dave (as his alter ego Canadian rock star Lucifer Lightning) protect his new recordings from pirates.
They even ended up helping to stage a bare gig while Rags took pictures for the ‘Stripped’ album cover.
The bare gig having gone so well there is a plan for Lucifer Lightning to bring his band to the UK and Europe for a tour and some naturist festival shows. This means that for the first time since before Bea was even a twinkle in her mum’s eye, Mum, Sylvia, and her brother Dave will be on the same continent.
Will it be a happy reunion or will fur fly? Whichever, Rags, the Uncovered Policeman will be there with his camera to record it all for the Family Album.

The Uncovered Policeman – Family Album
Rags to Riches book 7
Jeni and Karin are part of the up and coming young band, Five Point.
The downside of this rising fame is the interest of the tabloid papers and web sites. The paparazzi are after them and the girls need a holiday.
Elodie, their manager, suggests a break in a place where nobody takes pictures. L'Abeille Nue. The resort run by her cousin and her husband, Bea and Rags - the Uncovered Policeman.
Just one minor point Elodie omits to tell the girls ... L'Abeille Nue is a naturist resort.
This story the eighth in the Rags to Riches series is a romantic comedy, naturist fiction and does not contain any explicit sex scenes or references.
An email from an old friend piques the interest of Rags the Uncovered Policeman (retired).
Hi Rags,
I have had a visit from an old neighbour of mine and Gill’s, from back in the day. A guy called Ian Francis. He works in the TV industry, something to do with making light entertainment programmes. He is looking for a venue to make a drama programme. He visited us but after we had talked it through we decided that we couldn’t offer consistent enough weather for making a drama over several weeks.
Consequently, I suggested your place in early spring might be better. He said he would get in touch. It all seems really genuine, unlike some of the documentary programs we get asked to participate in. Give him a listen.
Rags' place?
The popular holiday destination, L'Abeille Nue. A naturist resort in the French countryside between the historic cities of Carcassonne and Narbonne.
The Road goes ever on and on
Down from the door where it began
The tenth story in the Rags to Riches series featuring the Uncovered Policeman. There are huge changes afoot at L'Abeille Nue. The naturist resort in the Southern France that Rags and Bea Adiscombe opened on the site of a failed riding stables many years earlier has changed over the passing of time. Evolution, not revolution have been the watch words. Suddenly there has been a major shift in the axis of their world. Now Rags is on a mission at the request of Bea. It could have been a lonely mission. Fortunately, he has a network of friends and family to help him along the way. Some are new to the story, like Horse, who takes Rags along the length of the most famous road in the world. On the way, there is still time for him to find the normal mix of sun and laughter. This is a stand-alone story but is most definitely better read in the sequence set out in the series.
The long goodbye to his old life has ended. His new life lay ahead ...
Rags, the Uncovered Policeman is slowly coming to terms with his devastating loss. He has said his goodbyes and is starting to rediscover life. Supported by his friends and family: he is off on a new adventure on the island of New Albion.
Maybe he is having a new adventure in life too?
Rags is a lucky man. According to Steve Thomas reviewing. This tale
Rags the Uncovered Policeman and the new woman in his life, Professor Kimberly Stern, have taken up residence on the island of New Albion.
Kim has a new job at the University. Rags has a lot of photographic work to do. Busy people. The relaxed attitude to nudity, as far as the law is concerned; it is not a problem of itself, suits them both down to the ground.
Then, well, things happen.
Then that is life as you get older and the kids grow up ...
