Lots of fun!

While it is a little dated (published in 1979), this book is great fun. It is full of dry, zany British humor and lots of plot twists. I look forward to reading Bonfiglioli's other works. Summary from the cover: "This caper finds Charlie the recent bridegroom of a voluptuous millionairess who is involved in a plot to assassinate the Queen of England; at the none-too-tender mercies of a Chinese dentist (the inscrutable Lo Fang Hi); and in terrified possession of the costliest baby powder in the world--among other mishaps."
