Return to Kirrin: A cracking vintage adventure for grown-ups

By Neil Howlett and Suzy Howlett

A witty, nostalgic and delightful adventure for adults. It is 1979, and Mrs Thatcher has just become Prime Minister. Punk, Ford Capris and dodgy police techniques are everywhere.

Julian Kirrin, once a "well-known" celebrated and adventurous child, is now a smooth forty-something entrepreneur with big ideas for Kirrin Island. He has to convince Dick, Anne and George to co-operate, but the cousins have grown up and grown apart. Anne has a perfect marriage and twins who are a little unusual. Dick is still seeking success and the love of a good woman. George is as fierce and independent as ever. Her dog, Gary, is not at all like Timmy

Of course there will be temper tantrums, awkward children and suspicious activities at sea, but serious danger and old political secrets are threatening the cousins. Is there always a way to escape?

Enid Blyton did not write this book. Touching, humorous and affectionate, this unofficial novel will delight anyone who wonders how their favourite characters might have grown up and coped in a changing world.

Can you ever dip your toe into the same rockpool twice?
