Threepence on the Carpet: RRP $46.00 Published by: Audacious Ink
The latest dramatic novel from New Zealand family doctor, novelist and filmmaker David Whittet.
A sudden inheritance from a long-lost uncle could be the lifeline Tommy needs … or a Pandora’s box about to implode.
As a folksinger touring the UK in the swinging sixties, life was a kaleidoscope of love, truth, and high hopes for Tommy Trevelian – until it all went up in a puff of smoking incense and bitter betrayal. Now he’s back in his homeland of New Zealand, middle-aged, disillusioned, and destitute. The washed-up musician still wants to sing songs and save the world if he could just get his countrymen to turn off the rugby and listen for a moment.
But Tommy’s tune changes when his long-lost uncle dies and leaves him a bequest. Is it a trove of riches? A vault of family secrets? Or something stranger?
Over in the UK, ten-year old Ollie could use a lucky break. His mother is sick, his aunt is awful, and life just kinda … sucks. Until the day he goes to the beach with threepence in his pocket and stumbles upon a sight that might just alter his destiny forever – and Tommy’s, too.
Drawing from his previous success with the Girl Gang series and The Road to Madhapur, New Zealand author David Whittet takes readers on another unforgettable journey. Threepence on the Carpet will delight readers who relish epic stories of love, courage, and redemption.
