Description:
|
Abandoned as a baby on the doorstep of the rambling home of the Fellowship of Puzzlemakers, Clayton Stumper is now ready at the grand age of 25 to solve the mystery of his parentage. What has brought this on, you might ask? Pippa Allsbrook, his foster mother has passed away and bequeathed puzzle clues to nudge him in the right direction. Moving between Clayton’s quest for identity and Pippa’s earlier life championing the puzzle makers and establishing the Fellowship, this is a charming, heart-warming story embracing English eccentricity and delighting in the quirky, the cryptic and the unsolvable.
Comments from BDS Reviewers:"I loved the characters and how this story evolved, how Clayton's story leads him to something and someone."
"It's one of those books you never want to end, with actual puzzles to solve, and random sentences that made me smile."
"A fabulous heartwarming debut about a group of older British puzzlemakers each with their own specialities, who form a club based on their shared interests , and end up becoming lifelong friends."
"Full of heart and even some romance - highly recommended for fans of 'The Thursday Murder Club' books."
A solid and original debut story sure to put a smile on the faces of readers of all ages!"
"The characters were by far the standout in this book, and they gave me all the feels. Each member of the Fellowship brought something new to the story, and it was easy to navigate their various roles."
"It's original and uplifting and an absolute ode to not just friendship, but fellowship."
