It’s Tenerife but not as you know it – THE BANANA ROAD by Andrea Montgomery

Click here to buy the Banana Road

When Andy and Jack buy a small house on a pitch ‘n’ putt golf course surrounded by banana plantations in the north of Tenerife, they encounter an eccentric neighbour who hints at a double life as an espionage agent; the Disney Gang; and a white cat with no tail, and a penchant for torture. An arrest and a sudden death turn their world upside down and open the door to a series of seemingly unrelated incidents. As Jesus takes up residence in the bottom of the garden and paradise begins to unravel, the shocking truth is finally uncovered and Andy and Jack face losing everything.

225 years ago, aged 39, Rear Admiral Horatio Nelson was simply out-smarted by a Spanish general. He lost a battle, 250 men, and his arm... how/where?
