Following his visit in October I’ve just finished reading “Howzat? The Six Sixes Ball Mystery” by Grahame Lloyd and have to say how much I enjoyed it.  Part cricket, part detective story, a whodunnit with a ball instead of a body! It’s not your average cricket book but it certainly makes a welcome change to some of the bland autobiographies published in recent years.

A nice Christmas present for a dad or grandad, check Amazon for further details at the link below.
