Sam and Red invite a retired senior policeman and his wife who they have known for years for lunch. There are fifty or so teddy bears and other stuffed creatures around the house who observe the goings-on with laughter and rudeness. This house is a place of secrets. Why does Sam sometimes limp rather badly? Why does Irish, the family bear, wear dark glasses when these friends of the house come? Why is she called Irish anyway? The bears know it all and joke about everything to each other all the time. Can Sam or Red hear what they say?This is a fun-filled tale about crime and guilt, full of naughtiness and scheming with voices in your head. Even the author isn't safe from these bears.
Autorenporträt
Dr Gerloch retired in 1999 from a career as an academic and research scientist in the field of quantum chemistry at the University of Cambridge. He is an emeritus fellow of Trinity Hall. He and his wife, Gwyneth, have since lived in Canberra, Australia. In retirement, Malcolm has enjoyed garden design, house renovation, and learning to cook in several cuisines. In 2004, he constructed a dual-manual Flemish harpsichord for Gwyneth to play and to thank her for introducing him (so late in life) to the non-scientific literature of the nineteenth and twentieth century European and twentieth century American writers. At 79, Malcolm began writing both children's and adult short stories, as well as the present account of retirement in Oz.
