There’s going to be trouble. Andy Caplet’s wife goes away, someone is out to get him, and he loses nearly everything in a storm. Amazing both himself and his unhuman friend Inspector Hobbes, he heroically rescues flood victims and uncovers something shocking.

Is Andy being set up for blackmail by the apparently charming young woman who attempts to seduce him, or is something even more sinister afoot? Hobbes certainly believes so, and he’s getting worried.

This is the fourth in Wilkie Martin’s unhuman series of cozy comedy crime fantasies.

“This is just plain fun. Follow our slightly dense hero Andy in his adventures with the more than life sized Inspector Hobbes, a combination of the Hulk, Batman and Hercule Poirot, in a Cotswold village that attracts some very weird creatures. But Andy and Hobbes always get their man, were wolf or stray pig.” 5 star review
