Continental Riff by Isabel Rogers

A continental tour of Europe doesn’t go quite as planned! When Stockwell Park Orchestra goes on tour to Europe, it proves a challenge for even the most efficient German logistical planner. A teenage stowaway, brass players falling in canals and a sabotaged timpani van are all in a day’s work for Ingrid Bauer of Note Perfect Tours, but even she can’t solve all the problems this week throws at her. Maybe a bit of surprise Bach can calm the muddy Brexit waters. She just has to fish out the musicians first.

'I was charmed.. a very enjoyable read' Marian Keyes


'Friendly insults between musicians, sacrosanct coffee-and-biscuit breaks, tedious committee meetings: welcome to the world of the amateur orchestra' BBC Music Magazine


'…a witty and irreverent musical romp, full of characters I’d love to go for a pint with. I thoroughly enjoyed getting to know the Stockwell Park Orchestra and can't wait for the next book in the series' Claire King, author of The Night Rainbow


'Sharp, witty and richly entertaining' Lev Parikian, author of Why Do Birds Suddenly Disappear?


'A very funny tale of musical shenanigans set in the febrile atmosphere of the Stockwell Park Orchestra' Ian Critchley


'With its retro humour bordering on farce, this novel offers an escape into the turbulent (and bonkers) world of the orchestra' Isabel Costello, author of Paris Mon Amour

Isabel Rogers writes poetry and fiction, but never on the same day. She won the 2014 Cardiff International Poetry Competition, was Hampshire Poet Laureate 2016, and her debut collection, Don’t Ask, came out in 2017 (Eyewear). She had a proper City job before a decade in the Scottish Highlands, writing and working in the NHS. She now lives in Hampshire, laughs a lot, and neglects her cello.  Life, Death and Cellos is her first novel. More information is on her website: isabelrogers.org or follow Isabel on Twitter @Isabelwriter
