Fabulous Time by Christina Koning

The Swinging Sixties have swung right past Constance Reason, living out her twilight years in the Sussex countryside. Then her louche nephew Sandy and his sinister boyfriend Ray tum up, swiftly followed by Iseult, Sandy's unworldy cousin, and melodramatic Aunt Leonora (a former leading light on the West End stage). Quite a crowd, even before Nick, a pop singer oozing Bohemian decadence, appears, entourage in tow. Then all it takes is a deep breath of sweet midsummer air and dope smoke to unleash some very strange goings-on. Suddenly everybody's having the time of their lives. But is it too much of a good thing? Is it possible that things are so fabulous, someone might actually die?
