Yet it is equally true that there are some things every golfer must know before setting foot on the course, lest he risk making an utter ass of himself.

This humble little volume gathers together a collection of the wisest counsel and advice on the Noble Sport in all its forms. Whether you are making up a friendly foursome with your choicest cronies or entering into a vicious fight for this year's club cup, G.O.L.F. will ensure you come off with top honours even when the odds are against you.

As a girl in the male-dominated criminal world, Artemis has already upset the system before making a single move. Unwanted secrets, buried deep in the Gentlemen's past, pour out with the mention of her father. The system has never been more off balanced, and someone needs to take the fall. The Gentlemen's only threat saunters out of the shadows seeking vengeance, creating fear in the royal family of crime.

A BIZARRE MURDER PLUNGES THE HAPLESS AUSTRALIANS INTO A QUEER WORLD OF BRITISH ARISTOCRACY, INTERNATIONAL POLITICS, SCANDAL, SPIES and FASCIST BLACKSHIRTS. A WORLD WHERE GENTLEMEN ARE NOT ALWAYS WHAT THEY ARE DRESSED UP TO BE. The Fifth Book of the Acclaimed Rowland Sinclair Mysteries Handsome, the epitome of stoicism and dignity, wry and witty despite his impeccable manners, protagonist Rowland Sinclair is an Oxford educated gentleman artist in his late 20s who enjoys being the black sheep of his conservative and wealthy family. Rowland has narrowly escaped Germany, damaged – physically and emotionally. Having spent time in Germany as a young man in the 1930s, he is horrified by the changes that have come about under the Nazi government. The country which he knew as the centre of modern art and culture is now, under Hitler, oppressed and brutalised. For the first time, he is moved to take a stance, to try and sway the political thought of the time. He doesn't really know what he is doing, or what should be done, but he is consumed with a notion that something should be done. Aristocrats with secrets. Scandalous rogues clad in tailcoats and sensational gowns. Danger is formally dressed. And Edna, siren, emancipated sculptress, the object of Rowland's deepest, unspoken desires, is by his side and yet out of his reach.
