The Spirit Of The Age is a Satirical Metaphysical Literary Contemporary Fantasy Murder Mystery Meet Probationary Police Constable Skandi Khan! Non-halal and non-kosher sacred cow slaughter is the order of the day as, transplanted from famously decaying multi-cultural Hounslow, she cuts a swathe through rural Dorset, grappling with a crime wave whilst struggling to get her arranged marriage back on track. It's idyllic touristy Jurassic Dorset as you have never seen her before. Monumental statues disappear, and bodies turn up in the ocean. There's murder, mystery, mermaids, music, Muslims, marriages, mages, mayhem and mirth, all served up with lashings of sex and cricket. Drawing inspiration from Tom Sharpe, Mikhail Bulgakov, Louis de Bernières and Terry Pratchett, it melds magic, mystery and metaphysical speculation with intricately drawn and engaging three dimensional characters. Its unique story line makes for a most enjoyable read. Praise from readers: - "One of the most unique novels I've read in years. Hugely imaginative, very entertaining, and has plenty of humor to boot.

" - "A beautifully crafted tale that forces the reader to face the stark realities of country life in modern Britain one minute, then suspend belief in reality the next. Thoroughly enjoyable reading.".
