Book Synopsis

'Anything can happen... You turn the pages wondering, 'Whatever next?''' - SFX

Polly, an average, completely ordinary property lawyer, is convinced she's losing her mind. Someone keeps drinking her coffee. And talking to her clients. And doing her job. And when she goes to the dry cleaner's to pick up her dress for the party, it's not there. Not the dress - the dry cleaner's.

And then there are the chickens who think they are people. Something strange is definitely going on - and it's going to take more than a magical ring to sort it out.

A wonderfully quirky and comedic outing from the hugely talented Tom Holt
