Sobre IBD

Colin Belcher, landscape gardener extraordinaire is ecstatically happy, or rather he would be were it not for Lillian his obnoxious wife. After years of attrition he decides to take action only to find himself entangled in a farcical and hilarious trail of mistaken murder involving the sex starved Lady Cynthia Pemberton, Lambert her psychopathic butler and Freddie Booklebaum the lascivious proprietor of Heavenly Pastures Nursing Home who has designs on the blonde, buxom and fiery Billie, Colin’s female assistant. Assigned with the job of finding the culprit or culprits is the steely Detective Inspector David Wiseman who relishes the task of solving a high profile case of multiple murder in order to approach his impending retirement in a blaze of glory. If you like dark humour or enjoy Tom Sharpe novels you’ll love Gardeners.
