Aliens & Arasbesques - Blast Off! — Robin Anderson

A PARK LANE KREMLIN: a TAJ VOLARE in the middle of the swampy FENS plus a nefarious Central African DICTATOR with greedy eyes not only on the bigger picture but the whole planet. These are only part of the challenges facing the infallible MIZ MIRANDA MARACONA and MIZ KOOKIE KOMBUIS (“We are transvestites of taste; never tackiness!”) as the two uber-glamorous super sleuths set about “putting a tranny in the works”. A vital ingredient in order to foil a series of nail-biting plots and ploys in the eighth of the highly popular LA DI DA DI BLOOD DA! series. Introducing the petulant, Gainsborough-inspired LORD ASHLEY MILKSLOPP; surly burly Russian oligarch VLADIMIR - “Baddy Vladdy” - BALSAWICH; interior designer DAMIAN - “Dinky” - DIAMOND; dubious American astronaut LUKE WARM; smooth talking Italian aristo COUNT BRUNO FORNICATORI; the Gongfu blade wielding BEIJING BRIGADE; penguin strutting KIM JONG-UN; the sultry femme fatale of all femme fatales, SVETLANA ORLOV - and the story has barely begun. However, if you allow MIZ M and MIZ K, our two intrepid heroines, along with MIZ M's beau, the dashing HENRY IRVING VICTOR (HIV to his nearest and dearest) and his colleague, Tom Cruise lookalike MIDGE MILLER to reveal more, you will be guaranteed a plethora of endless over-the-top surprises. ALIENS & ARABESQUES? It's a BLAST OFF!
