A welcome re-issue of Nigel William's modern classic of comic writing.
First book in the Wimbledon Trilogy
'A marvellously funny book.' Daily Mail
Henry Farr is forty years old. He is suburban, average, conventional - and desperate to be rid of his wife, Elinor. Inspired by a grisly episode in Wimbledon's local history, Farr begins to concoct a recipe for the perfect murder. But his plans go terribly, terribly wrong - and before long, poor Henry's best efforts to set himself free, in fact send him spiralling wildly out of control.
