In this book, the pompous and self-important Abbot spots a chance to take part in that Holy Grail of Bridge – the Bermuda Bowl world championships. Casting all ethics aside, he pursues this dream. Partnered by the Parrot, with the Witchdoctor, Mbozi, Mrs Okoku and Miss Nabooba as team-mates, he travels to India’s Chennai and faces many of the world’s real-life players.

Regular followers of David Bird’s work will know what to expect – a first-rate mixture of amazing bridge, entertaining characters and sparkling dialogue.
