Comments & Further Information

Book club edition. The book is in VERY GOOD condition in a VERY GOOD dustjacket. Slight internal stain at bottom of dustjacket, not visible externally. A Superintendent Kenworthy novel. “Kenworthy in retirement is consulted by a special team operating from the Cabinet Office. They need his second opinion on the random kidnappping of a motley collection of customers from a village shop in Bedfordshire. The ransome price is so bizarre that it is kept secret from the public – and on their return the villagers seem none the worse for their experience. But a rougher time is had by all when an entire Norfolk Parish Council is spirited away. Not until they try their hand at abducting a Yorkshire branch of the Women’s Institute do the kidnappers meet their match.” IN STOCK FOR IMMEDIATE DESPATCH
