A chattering fleet of drones gathers beneath Mrs Carter’s command, unloading a decidedly suspicious cargo of betting slips, pills and needles. When ageing drone Johnny Lennon develops a fault, Mrs Carter orders him destroyed—but kindly mechanic Evelyn has other plans, secretly repairing him and concealing an urgent message for Andy inside his fuselage.

The Fantastic Confabulations of an Ageing Tennis Player
Inspired by Rip Van Winkle, the short story by Washington Irving, The Fantastic Confabulations of an Ageing Tennis Player is the fourth and final book in this ‘Confessions’ series. Andy Murray wakes up twelve years late, trapped in a hospice that feels more like a prison, with his memory missing, his bar bill unpaid, and the US Open still somehow to be won. A darkly comic, surreal finale to the cult Confessions of an Ageing Tennis Player series.
Have a great US Open!
