Maggiori informazioni sul libro

On London's Foster Lane stands a Georgian redbrick house with a green door, home to the Trencom family's cheese store, established in 1662 by Humphrey Trencom and now run by Edward Trencom. This quaint shop has witnessed a series of strange "accidents" affecting each generation of the cheese-loving family. Edward, who has relied on his remarkable nose to elevate the family business into England's most celebrated fromagerie, discovers that this unique trait, passed down through generations, has also brought misfortune. One day, he stumbles upon a crate of family papers revealing that nine of his ancestors met sticky ends due to their noses. Ignoring his grandfather's warning against investigating their origin, Edward delves into a complex riddle with no clear answers, while being pursued by mysterious rival forces. Caught between danger and a delectable cheese legacy, Edward must confront the choices made by his nose, which has historically led to disastrous outcomes. Giles Milton’s debut novel combines humor with a love for cheese, drawing comparisons to Tom Sharpe and P. G. Wodehouse, while immersing readers in a world rich with the aromas of fine cheeses.
