FITHIAN PRESS LEXICON FOR WHODUNITS If it's a mystery to you what they're talking about in the hard-boiled slang of British mysteries--or if you're just a fan who delights in the colorful lingo of Limey lawmen--Bob's Your Uncle: A Dictionary of Slang for British Mystery Fans by Jann Turner-Lord will put you over the moon. There are hundreds of thousands of lovers of cozy British mysteries in the United States alone, readers of everything from Sherlock Holmes to viewers of BBC's "Eastenders," and most will tell you that their infatuation has quickly turned into addiction. But how many of us Yanks are fluent in the intricacies of Limey lingo? Most know bobbies are policemen and pubs are bars; but what's a flash Harry; what's a donkey jacket; what's the difference between a knicker and a pair of knickers? With over 500 terms from aggro to zed, plus a special section on Cockney rhyming slang, Bob's Your Uncle is a right jumble sale of lexicography. It's not only a novel reference work, it's a whacking good read as well! About the Author. Jann Turner-Lord is an avowed anglophile and mystery-addict.
