Percy deliberately chose a career as an accountant, because it offered him years of study to replace his empty social life. It had been 15 years since he had lost the love of his life, and he had not had a romantic interlude since. But when an old friend died unexpectedly Percy's quiet orderly life was about to be turned upside down.Strange goings on occur at his firm of accountants in the 1960s, and when Percy meets a new love and catches glimpses of his old flame he lost contact with 15 years before, and she hasn't changed a bit, his life goes into turmoil. Why is this new woman so interested in him, why is his boss doing everything he can to take Percy off a lucrative new contract and what colour is the hippy secretary's nail varnish going to be this week? Add to this the deaths of more than the average number of the company's clients, and a dodgy box of chocolates consumed by the cleaning lady, and you have a comedic mystery worthy of Tom Sharpe.
