“Book Descriptions: Mr. Roberts has had no adventure in his life. He's a 48 year old clerk at a well known firm in London and married with two children, but it's been dull. Parker Pyne sums up his unhappiness, and his desire in one sentence, "You want to live gloriously for ten minutes." Mr. Pyne arranges for the mild-mannered clerk with a passion for suspense novels to do some real-life spy work. But fact can sometimes be stranger than fiction.
