The Strange Affair of Adelaide Harris

by Leon Garfield Narrated by Ron Keith

Overview

When two British schoolboys decide to test the truth of the ancient Spartan tale of Romulus and Remus, they are soon stuck with the task of recovering a missing baby and making up ever-more elaborate lies to cover their tracks. This highly imaginative madcap farce could only have been crafted by Leon Garfield, the award-winning author of Black Jack.
