‘Stevyn Colgan bestrides the territory of English rural comedy, one foot on the throat of Joanna Trollope, the other knocking the bonnet of Miss Marple off her silver head. Divine black village comedy’ Stephen Fry

‘Only the British can mix humour and homicide so charmingly' Sandi Toksvig

‘Delightful witty fun. It’s a literary cream tea with a glass of fizz’ Neil Dudgeon

'My perfect book. Funny, complex, compelling, odd. The sort of book I love to read and wish I could write' Alex Horne

'A quirky, darkly comic and quintessentially English farce full of laugh-out-loud moments, with more than a flavour of Tom Sharpe. Colgan’s best yet!' Mary Jayne Baker

'A perfect English bubble universe, written with love and fizz. A blend of devious deeds and gleeful Ronnie Barkerish monocle-popping, as busy and funny as a Giles cartoon' Joel Morris
