Anna with her old friend and publisher, the effervescent Dodd? The man invites
Anna to join him in England for a traditional English country Christmas. He
promises to whip up his famous and potent Christmas pudding. But she must
promise first to tour with him and listen to his idea for her next best selling
spy mystery, The Affair of Lady Banks. To help in the telling of the story of
Lady Banks, who is but a vole in a mole’s game, Dodd calls up his mates the
Holmes brothers, Mycroft and Sherlock. They are the experts on the mind games of
spooks. As Mycroft likes to boast he is the spy’s spy. It is the ineffable
Sherlock Holmes who dubs Anna, Watson. Anna was an important name in the tight
circle of conspiracy theorist during her tenure at university. However, blowback
from the job is a serious problem for Anna. Indeed it is her damnable obsession
with conspiracies that propels her to take the California Zephyr to New York.
There she jumps aboard an ocean liner on which the passengers are traveling as
their favorite sleuths. After a quick tour of London it is a drive in the
English countryside. From there it is another train ride under the English
Channel to Paris. There is magic in the air with a horse drawn carriage ride
through the Marais as it gets ready to celebrate the festival of lights and
Christmas. This mystery travel adventure is not done yet. Anna dares to travel
in the dead of night by train to Switzerland. Anna is not sure if she has fallen
into the rabbit’s hole or if she is on her way to see the Wizard. The allure and
romance of foreign ports and first class travel are peppered perfectly with
epicurean delights. And there could be no better season for surprises as
Christmas approaches. On the snow covered slopes of the Alps Dodd serves up his
special brand of Christmas pudding. The secret recipe for his Christmas Pudding
mystery is a good measure of comedy mixed coarsely with a heap of suspense.
