Summary

Baking. It can get a guy killed.

A shadowy master criminal has been kidnapping experts from the food industry and stealing both food and equipment. The crimes are so unrelated no one in the world had noticed the connections.

No one except Albert Smith, that is.

He’s got almost nothing to go on, but with every place he visits, he gets just a little closer to the truth. He’s not working alone though, his faithful sidekick, Rex Harrison the former police dog is right there with him. Can the two of them pull off the impossible and find the man Albert chose to dub ‘the Gastrothief’?

Well, maybe, but it’s not going to be easy. Not least because the nation’s police suspect Albert of the very crimes he wants them to investigate.

On the run, far from home, and almost completely alone, can they turn their darkest hour into their greatest triumph?

Wedding Ceremony Woes
Eton Mess Massacre
Cornish Pasty Conspiracy

Speaking Animals

I am devastated that I have listened to all of Alberts Capers. I want to take Rex home with me. These stories have provided me with many hours of chuckle out loud entertainment.

Thoroughly enjoyable

I like crime stories but it’s nice to listen to a more lighthearted crime caper which is injected with humour. Loved the characters. Rex Harrison’s personality was wonderful and his relationship with Albert very heartwarming. I’m sure the author must have a dog as his portrayal of Rex’s thought processes and the trials and tribulations of do ownership was insightful and very amusing.
