That doesn't exactly strike me as book centering on a British agent who kills people.

Maybe this is the long-lost Benson short story written under the pseudonym of P. D. Eastman? Now I know why it was advertised as a limited edition. :tdown:

You think you're angry? Just imagine how upset and disappointed four-year-old Johnny is going to be when he opens up his present and finds this huge book called The Union Trilogy with no pictures in it instead of his highly anticipated Red, Stop! Green, Go! picture book. He's likely to throw a fit. :tdown:


Seriously, that is a bit of a bummer. Hang in there Righty.

There are so many comments that spring to mind.

But, under the circumstances, I think they\'re better left unsaid.
