About this ebook
Introducing Waldo Mars – former model, failed inventor, and the best finder east of Alpha Centauri, or at least Uxbridge. Waldo is impeded, rebuked and generally resented at every turn by his put-upon assistant, Rose Duvalle. And if he isn’t fighting with Rose, he is having to indulge the delusions of his bizarre clientele. There’s Reg, for example, who’s mislaid his Tuesday. And Tom, who’s mislaid himself. And Gerald, who’s lost a little patch of his study – just a small, cube-shaped area, right in the middle… Where do these people come from, and what Waldo wouldn’t give for a straightforward case from time to time! An amusing, intriguing and surreal set of mystery stories about a finder who frequently feels a little lost.
