Threepence on the Carpet

** PRE-ORDER NOW for 19th January 2026 release**

An unexpected inheritance from a long-lost uncle could be the lifeline Tommy needs … or a Pandora’s box about to implode.

As a folksinger touring the UK in the swinging sixties, life was a kaleidoscope of love, truth, and high hopes for Tommy Trevelian— until it all went up in a puff of smoking incense and bitter betrayal.

Now he’s back in his homeland of New Zealand, middle-aged, disillusioned and destitute. The washed-up musician still wants to sing songs and save the world if he could just get his countrymen to turn off the rugby and listen for a moment.

But Tommy’s tune changes when his long-lost uncle dies and leaves him a bequest. Is it a treasure trove of riches? A vault of family secrets? Or something stranger?
