A Is For Angelica

Gordon Kingdom struggles with the fate of his seriously-ill wife while patiently observing and methodically recording the lives of those around him: his neighbours. He has files on them all including Don Donald (best friend and petty thief) Annie Carnaffan (lives next door throws footballs over the fence) and Benny (the boy who paints with his eyes closed). Then there's Angelica the new girl (42) on the street with her multi-coloured toenails and her filthy temper. It's when she arrives that Gordon's world of half-truths really begins to unravel.
