About this audiobook
In Battenbun, Northumberland, there live four Puddleton men - Grandpop, Old Popo, Pop and Peter. Three of them have two things in common: a squint in one eye and in the other, a glint for the opposite sex. Peter, his mother's only joy, has no squint and no eye for women either - until one day a customer calls at his garage on the edge of the village. The village hadn't seen anything like her before, and wasn't certain it wanted to, and from the moment of her arrival, things began to happen. An eel is found in a pond where none had been known to visit before. Men creep through the woods to find this Slinky Jane, but it is not known whether they seek the eel. . . or this strange girl. . .
