Giovanni Ribisi’s Marius, just out of prison in the Amazon series “Sneaky Pete,” was hoping to skate away from his troubles when he assumed the identity of his former cellmate Pete and joined his new family’s bail bond business as a skip tracer — a criminal trying to outsmart other criminals.

In 1984, Ahearn left the detective agency and set up as a freelance skip tracer.

A former New York skip tracer – a private investigator who finds people who have “skipped” town – turned professional “disappearer”, Ahearn offers a range of freelance services, everything from helping to restore your privacy on the internet to driving your family across Europe and into a new life.

There he sat next to a skip tracer.

“There are two types of skip tracer: passive ones, who use databases and directories to find people; and aggressive ones, who carry out social engineering to find their prey.”
