read this over Christmas break - it has nothing to do with Christmas other than the man's name being Christmas Calvert. The book goes back and forth in his life and how he became a British assassin during World War II. I would only rate it as ok.
Overnight happenings in a small English town as seen by its police force. Very good slice-of-life novel.
Rogate-on-Sands is a seaside town whose population consists mainly of the retired and whose economy is heavily reliant on the annual influx of summer visitors. Its small police force copes efficiently with the petty crime which comes its way, rarely having to deal with anything more serious.
