Book description
It begins for Basil 'Banger' Peyton-Crumbe the day he dies in a
pheasant-shooting incident.
A tragic accident, thinks the local constable, but Banger's gundogs
and Buck, the police dog, exhibiting a level of intelligence vastly
superior to that of their owners, suspect murder. And for Basil, proud
slayer of over 41,000 birds with the cheap old 12-bore he's had since
childhood, things go from bad to very bad.
Guy Kennaway's books include
One People,
a novel, and
Sunbathing Naked,
a memoir. He lives in Somerset.
