Poor Table Manners - Steve Sheppard
- Book 3 in the Dawson and Lucy Series
'Steve Sheppard is a gifted comic writer with a knack for clever plotting and thrills.' Greg Mosse, writer

Dawson and Lucy hit Cape Town... and Cape Town hits back
When their new employer dies in a suspicious road accident and his brother, a South African government lawyer disappears in Cape Town, Dawson and Lucy are recalled to MI6. For once their mission is straightforward: liaise with Rebecca Erasmus of South African State Security and find the missing lawyer. Then Rebecca is kidnapped. Surely this has nothing to do with the forthcoming presidential election and the vengeful Chinese assassin in town...
Why are Dawson and Lucy held up at gunpoint on Table Mountain?
Why is a South African presidential candidate hiding in a vineyard?
How are the CIA and Chinese involved?
Can you fly a helicopter without scooping some goats up for the ride?
And what part does dreadful cooking have to play in proceedings?
-
Dawson is the unlikeliest MI6 spy you'll ever meet. Good thing he has the lethally competent Lucy Smith for company.
From important teapots to vengeful assassins to international conspiracies, is there any escapade that Dawson can't stumble into or any that Lucy can't rescue him from? Find out in the funniest spy thriller series you'll ever read.
