But his world is turned upside down when he stumbles across a crate of family papers.

When he investigates further, Edward finds himself caught up in a Byzantine riddle to which there is no obvious answer...Giles Milton's deliciously comic debut novel is a mouth-watering blend of Louis de Bernieres, Tom Sharpe and P. G. Wodehouse with every page permeated by the pungent odour of cheese.
'The pong of ripe Limburger lingers impressively' - The Observer
'Comic novels are difficult to write: any old halfwit can produce 400 pages of stinking high seriousness, but it takes a real wit to manage 400 pages of mild, fragrant good humour' - The Guardian
