The High Flyer
by Shakespeare, Nicholas
Shakespeare must be praised for his energy, his always lucid presentation' IAN MORRISON, Independent on SundayThomas Wavery is the new Consul General at Abyla on the tip of North Africa. A career diplomat, Wavery was once a high flyer, but an affair with a younger woman has dashed his dreams of ambassadorship. He arrives in Abyla with his wife suing for divorce, his passport stolen by a Gibraltarian ape and precious little enthusiasm for the task ahead. His one hope of redemption is a visit from his new love.
