The Beaux of Little Paris (Paperback) (ISBN-13: 9781803694306)

The much beguiled protagonists of Book 1, Moblomov and Reiz, ramp up their pursuit of the missing celebrity from Highgate Cemetery and his abductors, our boys (and girls) Morrows, O'Hony & Co., with multiple geographical locations as the backdrop to this ongoing saga of cat and mouse.

After an interlude on the ocean battered west coast of the Emerald Isle (Ireland) their exploits take them back to Düsseldorf where their stay is yet again curtailed by Moblomov's and Reiz's reoccurring unwelcome attentions and their consequent wanderings take them to farther reaches of Germany, the most striking of which being Berchtesgaden, a fairyland corner of the world with the echo of a Celtic past still distantly present where nature ruled untamed by human order, nestling below its five peaks in the Bavarian Alps.

Enter Lt. Colonel Chalmondeley of the British Army of the Rhine based at Carmarthen Barracks in Düsseldorf contributing to driving the mayhem of the plot into top gear and leading to the ultimate failure of the pursuing party in achieving its goal of acquiring the 'goods' and the cash, with the local clerical community joining the action to round off the chaos as the final outcome of this farce.

Treat yourself to an affirmation of Book 1 continuing to add a new dimension to the meaning of lunacy and total disrespect for the established order, and as to how incompetence can win against intelligence with three countries Ireland, Great Britain and Germany left to cope with the aftermath and leaving the imagined minor characters of this disaster ridden enterprise, become international incident, promoted to the status of title roles.
