Synopsis

TAP. TAP TAP.

From the tapping of the mysterious typewriter to the missing diamonds to the missing disembodied voices, Muriel Spark provokes utter delight with her assortment of odd and completely captivating characters. Laurence Manders discovers that his grandmother is leader of a smuggling gang, so he asks Caroline Rose to aid his investigation, even though she is extremely unpredictable and rather likely to hear strange voices at strange times.
