About this ebook
Amiss finds himself in a bizarre caricature of a club, run by and for debauched geriatrics, with skeletons rattling in every cupboard. Why are there so few members? How are they financed? Will Amiss keep his job despite the enmity of the ferocious, snuff-covered Colonel Fagg? More importantly, will he solve the crime before someone else dies?

- Rating: 5 out of 5 stars5/5I love Robert Amiss stories, especially when the Baroness Trout isn't overpowering, or even present. This very funny tale of murder at one those fabled British men's clubs will make even the most staid reader laugh aloud. The characters are endearing and actually show a bit of development. Most highly recommended.
