When Arnold Parker decides to take a well-earned break to Northumberland, he doesn’t realise how dangerous it will be!

A simple request from an ex-pupil to help her with research for her new book turns into a perilous quest for a long lost document which has the potential to bring down government and the monarchy. And Arnold is not the only one on its trail

Once again Arnold Parker is thrust into situations that no senior citizen should have to face. Luckily his dead wife is still there to keep him grounded as he encounters disturbed young thugs, sadistic criminals and ruthless secret agents – and gets the better of them as only a pensioner can!

Lively, entertaining and suspenseful, this is another page-turning adventure for the surprisingly youthful and resourceful Arnold Parker.
