Leopard In The Grass - Paperback

by Sue Bates (Author)

One Monday morning, Lily, a successful thirty year old career woman, sees a leopard hiding in the long grass in her suburban back garden. "What to do next?" she asks herself. Lily's surprising answer takes her and her dog, Archie, on a journey of unusual and often comical incidents. Sleeping under hedges; raiding supermarket bins; selling a stolen Gauguin, to a dodgy character from the criminal underworld - all in the cause of fulfilling Lily's dream. Lily finds love but the fulfilment of her dream is always in the balance - and along the way an old woman predicts, 'it'll all end badly'. As for Archie - if there's a friend nearby and a biscuit to be eaten, he's happy. And the leopard?
