Meanwhile, the Kommandant, riding to hounds in the Aardvark mountains, succumbs to the bizarre charms of Mrs. Heathcote-Kilkoon, as Luitenant Verkramp's essays in counter-espionage backfire in the bird sanctuary. Once more, Konstabel Els, homicidal to the last, saves the day--or what's left of it--in one of the most savage hunts ever chronicled in fiction.\u003c\/p\u003e \u003cp\u003eAnd if you've ever wondered why Tom Sharpe, as a young man, was deported from South Africa (but not before enjoying its unique prisons), you need only read \u003cem\u003eIndecent Exposure\u003c\/em\u003e and its companion, \u003cem\u003eRiotous Assembly\u003c\/em\u003e.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cdiv\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eNumber of Pages:\u003c\/strong\u003e 247\u003c\/div\u003e\u003cdiv\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eDimensions:\u003c\/strong\u003e 0.69 x 8.2 x 5.49 IN\u003c\/div\u003e\u003cdiv\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003ePublication Date:\u003c\/strong\u003e January 18, 1994\u003c\/div\u003e","brand":"Books by splitShops","offers":[{"title":"Default Title","offer_id":42722231025727,"sku":"9780871131423","price":21.6,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0105\/8226\/1823\/files\/2f3e6af01d58d1aefa06f20e67237883.webp?v=1765095059","url":"https:\/\/dhlswag.com\/products\/indecent-exposure-paperback-1","provider":"BBB","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
