Publisher's Synopsis
It is England in 1912 and a group of fashionable, middle-aged witches are causing havoc in the quiet Derbyshire village of Sodden-on-the-Bog. They aint from round ere, as one villager put it, and indeed these ladies are not. They are from a distant planet, a touch to the left and a little jiggle down from the buckle on Orion's Belt. They've been given strict orders to find the great wyrms of legend but have discovered the sun, sangria and the suffragettes instead. There's the teeniest tiniest problem of them being mistaken for German spies too, not to mention being chased by giant rats with bowler hats who have taken over the village pub. Lavender and Haddock - the first of a comedy trilogy recounting the exploits of a group of witches in their search for peace, love and the Stately Wyrms of England...and a good gin and tonic, they adore a good gin and tonic.
