Nosing about on Google Maps and I see a mark for a detective agency, in an odd location. Looking at their website it seems... weird...

There seems to be a whole family of sites for different locations in the UK:

All the same, all with that awkward phrasing.

This has got to be some kind of honeypot, right?

The Dudley branch appears to be open 24 hours a day.

The photo of one of the people in the recommendations shows her facing sideways. Who sends in a photo like that?

When househunting recently (not far from Dudley too...) we arranged a viewing on a semi-detached bungalow, and were intrigued to see that when we looked it up on Google maps the bungalow next door that it was attached to was tagged as something like 'New Power Radio station'' or something, can't remember the exact name. So I googled it and found their facebook page, and basically this bloke is running an internet radio station from home, five days a week. There's pictures of him sitting in his living room with an enormous PA system and speakers all over the place. We cancelled the viewing.

This is all very reminiscent of a kitchen company featured on this site about ten years ago. I can't find them any more, but back then kitchens[city name] was spamming the shit out of the young interweb.

I suspect many people don't bother looking at reviews or just look at a few of them, there seem to be a number of five star awards on there.

One of their staff made the local paper in Cambridge: https://www.cambridge-news.co.uk/news/local-news/what-its-like-private-detective-16763378

So if the person they're following goes inside or where there isn't a road they're stuffed then?

Just another quiet day in Dudley as an old gumshoe, sipping my morning special brew while we strive to marshal our reputation as time goes. Suddenly, some broad slammed open the door, clearly showing uncertainty about sensitive personal or business matters, compromised security, sheer dishonesty, cheating, people and asset tracing.
"Hey, Mac, you I-Spy Dudley? I got an outrageous issue for ya!" she said.

What could I say? I set aside opportunity to tune in to her circumstance. I chuckled. "Well, you know no embarrassment or matter is too enormous or little for us. What's your name, toots?", I asked.
"Olive. Jessie Olive".
I smiled, "Well, Ms Olive, you are choosing the most professional and proactive detective agency in Dudley with a vast local knowledge of Dudley and its surrounding areas."

"Thank you John your amazing"

I could tell it was going to be a long time till an amicable, logical and believable solution was found to this case.
