An injection of humour is just what we need now that winter has set in and no better man then Jasper Fforde with his surreal Jack Spratt detective novel.
The Gingerbreadman - psychopath, sadist, convicted murderer and cake/biscuit - is loose on the streets of Reading, in this second novel featuring DI Jack Spratt and DS Mary May from Reading's Nursery Crimes Division. Combining elements of classic crime fiction with a comedy and originality all of their own, this new series is already a sales and critical success.
