Richard Cadogan, Poet And Would-Be Bon Vivant, Arrives For What He Thinks Will Be A Relaxing Holiday In The City Of Dreaming Spires. Late One Night, However, He Discovers The Dead Body Of An Elderly Woman Lying In A Toyshop And Is Coshed On The Head. When He Comes To, He Finds That The Toyshop Has Disappeared And Been Replaced With A Grocery Store. The Police Are Understandably Skeptical Of This Tale But Richard'S Former Schoolmate, Gervase Fen (Oxford Professor Of English Language And Literature), Knows That Truth Is Stranger Than Fiction (In Fiction, At Least). Soon The Intrepid Duo Is Careening Around Town In Hot Pursuit Of Clues But Just When They Think They Understand What Has Happened, The Disappearing-Toyshop Mystery Takes A Sharp Turn...
