Penny Wise - Spy Foolish (Fiction - Humour, under construction)

This is a full-length novel ...

A 1970’s cash-strapped and bungling British Secret Service finds an economic route to urgently hiring a new field operative, Jasper Lambe (with an “e”) for a special mission in India. Time and budget constraints limit Jasper’s induction, leading to the equivalent of a baby bird being pushed out of a nest and expected to fly even though its feathers have not yet developed.

The inexperienced and inept British agent muddles his way through a maze of deceit, deviousness and danger to bring the mission to a relatively successful conclusion whilst unwittingly getting entangled in an altogether different one.

Publication expected later this year.
