    About this ebook

    Sydney's Bondi Beach was never like this. Police Sergeant West, with her two supposed superiors, turn up at Bonga-Bonga beach to investigate the murder of a young girl. Detective Bigfoot and his little buddy Detective Littlefoot head straight for the local eatery and order sausages! Can Elizabeth pull them into shape and will the bizarre line of investigation Bigfoot is following lead to a near death experience for her.

    Reviews: 'Possibly the best in the series so far. Bodies turn up quicker than in a Bruce Willis film. The detectives follow a theory that what the suspects had for lunch offer vital clues and they solve the matter by arresting a hapless soul before the Fat Lady sings.'

    'Many bizarrely exquisite oddballs emerge in hilarious situations before the usual final twist. A particular favourite was the crackpot playwright trying to construct a riveting play based on attempting to unify quantum physics and Einstein's Theory of Relativity. These eccentric, bumbling, food obsessed detectives would form a real basis for a TV Sitcom series and many other colourful characters offer wonderful opportunities for side-splitting cameo roles.'

    'A joke a minute truly written by a funny man.'

    Anthony E Thorogood

    I was born in London England in 1953, which makes me a baby boomer I think. Dad ran a market stall in Woolwich’s Beresford Square selling anything and everything. A natural Cockney salesman with all the patter that goes with it but when he was told to give it up or die from the cold, we packed up shop and migrated to Australia.In my youth I always enjoyed my old Dad’s tales of his adventures in the navy in WWII and of his childhood hop picking in Kent, I got my love of storytelling from my Dad. I wrote a book on cider in 2008 after being awarded a Churchill Fellowship to travel around the world and drink and research cider, the cider book sold out. I followed the success of my cider book by writing a series of madcap comic extravaganzas: Bigfoot Littlefoot & West. I followed the Bigfoot books with my Jack Hamma action adventure series starting with Shakespeare on the Roof. Then in 2015 I wrote three romantic travel adventures starting with Sex Sardines and Sauerkraut.This is the bit where I state that I am happily living the good life on our 5 acre property, on the beautiful island of Tasmania, spending my time walking, cycling, planting trees, growing vegetables and writing the odd book, very odd some people say.
