by Mike Ripley (Author)

Synopsis

On the trail he encounters Werewolf's brother, a wolf in sheep's clothing if ever there was one; a second-rate but very loud heavy metal band; a young Dutchman who's as well armed as he is well dressed, and the mad, bad and definitely dangerous Lucinda L. Luger. And then he has to face the bad guys...

He makes me laugh and it annoys the other passengers.'- Minette Walters; 'Farce of the highest calibre.'- Guardian; 'The outrageous, riproaring Mr Ripley is an abiding delight'- Colin Dexter
