Lemon

by Barnaby Eaton-Jones

Spencer was an insignificant Data Input Operator and this suited him fine. However, when he is mistaken for someone actually significant, due to a mix-up by the Post Office, then his life becomes complicated. By complicated we're talking murder, sex, violence, car chases, beautiful women, and an annoyed fat cat (both of the feline* and big business variety). Spence didn't like complicated things and he was as far removed from being James Bond as Shakespeare was from being a hack plagiarist. A week in Spences life usually consisted of nothing more than dull, repetitive, time-wasting tedium. But, not this week. This week was going to be different and Spence wasnt going to like it one little bit.

* Just to add some extra zest to this 'Lemon, you can read all about Spences love-hate relationship with his feline nemesis in 'Eric's Tale' at the end of the book.

[Dennis · Rating 5 out of 5]

An enjoyable story, a rollicking adventure of an everyman dragged into a world of intrigue. For the Dr. Who fan out there, Barnaby gives several of the supporting characters names from world of Doctor Who. Which ones, I'll leave it to you to discover. For me the best character in the book is Eric, the cat. I do hope Barnaby gives us his further adventures.
