What Monty Python's Flying Circus might have done with Agatha Christie's lost manuscript...

Invisible burglars who take nothing, but frighten the cat at meal times? This is hardly a case worthy of newly-promoted Chief Inspector Morgan. But when valuable jewels go missing and an attempt is made on Blandthorpe Fargenstropple's life, Morgan jumps into action with keen interest.

With a quirky cast of characters, witty banter, a little romance, and plenty of ridiculous mishaps, this cozy mystery will challenge your ability to read in any sort of dignified manner--so grab a tray of tea and crumpets and plan to laugh out loud.


"Farce is hard. Farce that is energetic without being exhausting is harder. Farce that is coupled with clever dialogue and disarmingly perceptive observational humor may be the hardest of all. You get all of that here, and isn't that a wonderful treat?" ~ TOP 500 Amazon Reviewer

"A wickedly funny mystery. It is a relatively quick and light read that will have you laughing from beginning to end." VINE VOICE Amazon Reviewer
