PR consultant Anna Nicholas tries to cut her ties with London for a rural life in Mallorca. But her dream to open a cattery is thwarted by the abduction of her beloved toad, a scorpion infestation, and a growing fixation with goats. Back in London she’s coping with loopy new clients. Anna’s third book is pithy and full of memorable characters.
Life is never simple for PR consultant Anna Nicholas as she attempts to cut loose her ties with London for a more mañana existence in rural Mallorca with her family. Despite nearing her dream to open a cattery, she is thrown off course by the abduction of her beloved toad, a scorpion infestation, getting lost in the hills and a growing fixation with ancient goats.
Meanwhile in London she’s coping with loopy new clients – an amorous rock climber, a Bulgarian transvestite couturier and a couple of warring designers. Witty, pithy and brimming with memorable characters, Goats From A Small Island is Anna’s third book about working between two places and a delightful tribute to Mallorca’s rich and varied way of life.
