Publisher’s Blurb – Lower Cover
When Mr. Roy Whittle was asked to proceed urgently to Woolingham Hall, the country home of an old friend, he little knew what was in store. Strange things were happening. Bells rang; pictures fell from the walls; Quintus Maximus, the Roman soldier whose skeleton had been unearthed by Aunt Clara in the course of her excavations, strolled about at night under his own steam ... Why did Felix Fredl, that eminent Austrian Archaeologist, wear a false beard – and was it possible that Stoker, the respected family butler, had unwittingly turned the glamorous Pauline Wrightman into a bat? All was revealed in due course, but not without a goodly quota of twists, turns and surprises.
If you are looking for steamy sex scenes, conversations sprinkled with the f-words, politically correct jargon and of course violence of all kinds, then go elsewhere. If not, then sit back and enjoy this hilarious romp which will take you back to the England of more than half a century ago.
