  • "The unexplained disappearance of the gentleman Atticus Craftsman in the heart of the shadows deep within Spain seems to be related to the crafty skills of five desperate women who will do anything to keep their jobs at the magazine Librarte."
  • "A hilarious and charming literary novel about the mysterious disappearance of an Englishman in the heart of Spain. Perfect for fans of quirky translated fiction like "The One-Hundred-Year-Old Man Who Climbed Out of the Window and Disappeared" and literary gems like "The No.1 Ladies Detective Agency""
  • "La inexplicable desaparición del gentleman Atticus Craftsman en el corazón de las tinieblas de la España profunda parece estar relacionada con las malas artes de cinco mujeres desesperadas, las empleadas de la revista Librarte, capaces de cualquier cosa con tal de conservar su trabajo."
  • "Atticus Craftsman never travels without a supply of Earl Grey, an electric kettle and a teacup - so he makes sure he has packed all three after his father, distinguished publisher of Craftsman & Co., sends him to Madrid to shut down a failing literary magazine, Librarte. But when nobody has heard from him in three months, his father knows something must be very wrong. Do not fear, Inspector Manchego is on the case. No, not the cheese. Manchego, as in the most valiant Don Quijote de la Mancha. Lacking a horse but with plenty of hapless derring-do, Manchego gets to work unravelling the mystery of the quintessential Englishman's disappearance. But there to block him at every turn are the five fiery and closeknit Spanish women who run Librarte, and who'll do anything to keep their jobs - even if it involves a spot of kidnap, the long-lost poems of Federico Garcia Lorca and a journey that winds through the narrow streets of Madrid and down to the gypsy heart of Andalucia..."
  • "Atticus Craftsman never travels without a supply of Earl Grey and a favourite book. So when he is sent to shut down a failing literary magazine in Madrid, he packs both. A short Spanish jaunt later, he'll be back in Kent, cup of tea and smoked-salmon sandwich in hand. But the five ladies who run the magazine have other ideas. They'll do anything to keep the jobs they love and their cosy office together. Even if it involves hoodwinking Atticus with flashing eyes, the ghosts of literature past and a winding journey into the heart of Andalucia. With not the most efficient of detectives in hot pursuit, it's only a matter of time before Atticus Craftsman either falls in love, disappears completely or - worst of all - runs out of Earl Grey."
