Bob Burns Investigates – The Mallorcan Connection
Admirers of Peter Kerr’s Mallorcan semi-autobigraphical travel books will be intrigued by this latest offering. Cosy crime combined with the travel market, is how it’s billed. Kerr’s hero, Bob Burns (and the name should give you a clue as to how seriously to take him) doesn’t quite fit the mould of fictional Scottish detectives or policemen so far introduced to the reading public, although he does share a penchant for unfortunate marriages and a dedication to truth rather than promotion.

The Morello Letters: Penpal to the Stars
Mr. Morello is described as a slightly confused, pear-shaped 45 year old Italian immigrant who has recently moved from Devon to London with his wife and three children. In attempting to make sense of the peculiar ways of the British, he corresponds with a number of institutions and individuals, who have little choice but to take him seriously and to respond courteously, feigning concern for Mrs. Morello’s bad feet and the goat’s diet, should they bring her with them when shopping in Harrod’s.
