The Luck Stone

Originally published as a serial in Chums under the pseudonym of Basil Windham, The Luck Stone is thoroughly Wodehouse with his trademark sticky situations, quirky characters, sly humour and wit, and of course, his renowned prose. All written in the form of a letter to a friend, this dark and suspenseful plot will never fail to disappoint

Reviews

These Days Are Ours is needle-sharp, utterly authentic, funny, and soaked in the particular melancholy that shrouded New York at the beginning of the twenty-first century. Michelle Haimoff is a literary Whit Stillman, and I tore through her novel with enormous enjoyment.

—— Nick Hornby, bestselling author of 'About A Boy' and 'How To Be Good'

Smart, witty, honest, and never anything less than utterly engaging

—— Jonathan Tropper, author of 'How to Talk to a Widower'

Engrossing . . . Haimoff's writing resonates with an authenticity and gravitas that books about girls trying to find themselves in the big city often lack. Her details about elite schools and childhood haunts in Manhattan pepper Hailey's memories in often touching ways. A thoughtful novel for our time

—— Publishers Weekly

Exceptionally well-written and gripping

—— Stylist

Compelling reading

—— Woman and Home

A page-turning thriller

—— Mail on Sunday

Pacey and juicy, and packed with action

—— Sunday Times

The ambiguous and tantalizing ending to this original and exciting story signals a sequel.
