For magician's assistant Selina Plankton, this week is not a week like any other. She's evicted from her flat. She's sawn in half for the very last time. She meets a Serbo-Scottish psychiatrist who seems to have cornered the market in Hawaiian shirts. And then there's a desperate call for help from Darwin, from a friend threatened with death. or worse - the zoning minister. The plot doesn't thicken at this point, it positively curdles. Selina is embroiled in mystery, mayhem, attempted murder and an extremely tricky point of etiquette: should a modern girl accept $10,000 on a first date?
Tropical and topical, it's about socks, lies and audiotape, romance, politics and resort wear. 'The Crocodile Club' . . . a romance mystery political farce with a double twist and pike.
