Slapsticky caper riffing on the Third Man, with London scenes filling in for Vienna, the big reveal on the London Eye, and our young and dumber gumshoes, the Diamond Bothers, pursued by a troupe of circus performers in a deadly hilarious chase scene. Its genre-bending panache is neatly packed into

5 funny chapters, and still includes a closing cameo from a zither. After this, you'll not be able to resist reading the "Falcon's Malteser", or the rest of this series.

I think this series progressively gets better. This mystery saw Nick and Tim investigating the death of Lenny Smile. It was short only about 80 pages but it packed a lot into those 80 and it remained funny and interesting.

The man in the photo is so blurred you can't see what he looks like, and that was before he was run over by a steamroller! His name was Lenny Smile and he ran a charity financed by Joe Carter. Carter wants to find out what happened to Smile and the money, but he has hired the Diamond Brothers.
