Welcome to Corduroy Mansions in Pimlico: a temple of Arts and Crafts architecture with comforting weathered brickwork and frankly frivolous dormer windows it is home to a delightfully eccentric cast of Londoners. In the top flat lives William with a faithful ex-vegetarian dog named Freddie de la Hay and a freeloading son who he hopes will soon fly the nest. Four lively young women share the first-floor flat including twinset-and-pearls Caroline from Cheltenham Dee vitamin addict and avid subscriber to Anti-oxidant News and Jenny a put-upon PA. And round the corner lives Oedipus Snark MP possibly the world's only loathsome Lib Dem who has succeeded in offending everyone he knows and many others besides. But what dark revenge is being plotted by his mother Berthea Snark and by his girlfriend Barbara Ragg...?

Another wonderfully curious work of fiction from author of the 44 Scotland Street series Alexander McCall Smith, this new block of flats in Pimlico plays host to a cleverly constructed cast of characters, whose interactions rarely fail to amuse. Corduroy Mansions is the perfect home for some of McCall Smith's finest creations such as top flat dwellers William and his faithful ex-vegetarian dog Freddie de le Hay, and MP Oedipus Snark, a man so vile that even those closest to him are plotting revenge against the Lib Dem parliamentarian. The author's cunning social observations bring the reader closer than ever to the hopes and dreams of his assembled cast in unique fashion.
