At last in B-format paperback, the long-awaited sequel to Aberystwyth Mon AmourTo the girls who came to make it big in the town's 'What the Butler Saw' movie industry, Aberystwyth was the town of broken dreams. To Dean Morgan who taught at the Faculty of Undertaking, it was just a place to get course materials. But both worlds collide when the Dean checks into the notorious bed and breakfast ghetto and mistakenly receives a suitcase intended for a ruthless druid assassin. Soon he is running for his life, lost in a dark labyrinth of druid speakeasies and toffee apple dens, where every spinning wheel tells the story of a broken heart, and where the Dean's own heart is hopelessly in thrall to a porn star known as Judy Juice.

Add a clown, a brain in a box and an endearing gallery of grotesques and stir maliciously. Priceless' Guardian 'Pryce is in a league of his own ... effortless and hilarious ... Pryce's novels show disturbing signs of becoming a cult. If only Aberystwyth was really like this' Time Out
