A list of books I've read recently with some occasional gibberish thrown in.

MR CALDER & MR BEHRENS - Michael Gilbert
Another re-read featuring the two retired MI 6 spies who now work for a shadowy intelligence section which involves them disposing of enemies of the state.
This collection of short stories is brilliant. Gilbert only wrote the two collections which is a shame. They are much better than the Ashenden stories and have lots of humour.
I've never seen them in book form in New Zealand, I got the books on Kindle but they are available on Amazon.
Money well spent. They deserve the re-read every few years
