In the meantime Philadelphia's Grandfather, Edgar, is also matchmaking and wants to team her up with the son of his World War II squadron leader and a member of the British aristocracy Sir Reginald Houghton-Smythe a globetrotting millionaire with a plum in his mouth and cholesterol clogging his veins.

1 y separately published work icon Bigfoot Littlefoot and West : Murder Mayhem and Madness in the Tasmanian Midlands Anthony E Thorogood , Saarbrucken : Justfiction Edition , 2012 Z1908818 2012 single work novel crime humour 'Do not read Bigfoot Littlefoot & West unless you want to laugh, enjoy yourself and feel the woes of the world momentarily lift from your shoulders. Bigfoot Littlefoot & West is pure, unadulterated, cover to cover madness. The two police officers, Bigfoot and Littlefoot, are more like stand-up comedians than serious public servants dedicated to the maintenance of law and order. Thank goodness for Sergeant Elizabeth West who brings a little sanity to the world. Bigfoot Littlefoot & West is, however, more than a whodunit, it is the story of three friends who are there for each other when the chips are down. Bigfoot Littlefoot & West is an indulgence not to be forgone, treat yourself to sheer pleasure, you may never be the same again.' (Publisher's blurb)
1 2 y separately published work icon That Blackfella Bloodsucka Dance! Bruno Starrs , Saarbrucken : Justfiction Edition , 2011 10196619 2011 single work novel fantasy

'In this bold and cheeky meditation on religion, middle-aged muscleman, uncertain Catholic and wanna-be academic Sterling de Bortoli is a self-described Octaroon... Neither black nor white this part-blood Blackfella struggles with concepts of identity, moving between the two worlds but not really belonging to either. Thus he pursues a frustrated, anarchic, homeless existence in Canberra and Melbourne, until, through the influence of the Anti-Christ, his Dark Lord Maria, he travels to Islamic Morocco. It's a land completely foreign to his Dreamtime totem, and it's where de Bortoli learns to be a full-blood vampire ... a monster who never says sorry.'
