More Description
A hilarious and charming literary novel about the mysterious disappearance of an Englishman in the heart of Spain.
'A joy to read . . . Deliciously quirky!' Rosanna Ley, author of The Villa and Return to Mandalay
Atticus Craftsman never travels without a supply of Earl Grey and a favourite book. So when he is sent to shut down a failing literary magazine in Madrid, he packs both. A short Spanish jaunt later, heâe(tm)ll be back in Kent, cup of tea and smoked-salmon sandwich in hand.
But the five ladies who run the magazine have other ideas. Theyâe(tm)ll do anything to keep the jobs they love and their cosy office together. Even if it involves hoodwinking Atticus with flashing eyes, the ghosts of literature past and a winding journey into the heart of AndalucÃa.
With not the most efficient of detectives in hot pursuit, itâe(tm)s only a matter of time before Atticus Craftsman either falls in love, disappears completely or âe" worst of all âe" runs out of Earl Grey.
Crime comedy, love story and literary adventure all at once, The Altogether Unexpected Disappearance of Atticus Craftsman is fiendishly fun and delightfully different.
