The Agatha Witchley Mysteries

Part 2 of the 'In The Company of Ghosts' series: THE PLATO CLUB

As an ex-spy rumoured to have gone insane after being held captive by the KGB and tortured for a decade, Agatha Witchley has seen her share of strange cases over the years. But none compares to the faked autoerotic asphyxiation of billionaire Simon Werks, and the sudden trail of death tracking after the American industrialist's family.

Now that Agatha and her friends from the security services are being targeted hard to stop the investigation, she's taking it personally. Unfortunately for the British agents in peril, so are the ghosts Agatha Witchley's convinced are helping her – Churchill, Elvis and Groucho Marx.

The woman who can solve the murder might be lethal, she might half-insane and drawing a pension, but it's amazing how you can forgive that in a genius when it's a genius's help you need.

The assassins on Agatha Witchley's trail have really made her mad now. What they don't know is how totally deranged she was to begin with!

REVIEWS

Praise for Stephen Hunt's novels:

'Compulsive reading for all ages.'
- GUARDIAN

'Studded with invention.'
-THE INDENDENT

'Hunt has packed the story full of intriguing gimmicks… affecting and original.'
- PUBLISHERS WEEKLY

'An inventive, ambitious work, full of wonders and marvels.'
- THE TIMES

'Hunt's imagination is probably visible from space. He scatters concepts that other writers would mine for a trilogy like chocolate-bar wrappers.'
- TOM HOLT

'Hunt knows what his audience like and gives it to them with a sardonic wit and carefully developed tension.'
- TIME OUT

'A swaggering, eye-filling, brain-swizzling extravaganza!'
— KIRKUS REVIEWS
