Two Weeks with the Queen
"Dear Your Majesty the Queen,
I need to speak to you urgently about my brother Luke. He's got cancer and the doctors in Australia are being really slack. If I could borrow your top doctor for a few days I know he/she would fix things up in no time. Of course Mum and Dad would pay his/her fares even if it meant selling the car or getting a loan. Please contact me at the above address urgently.
Yours sincerely
Colin Mudford.
P.S.
This is not a hoax.
Ring the above number and Aunty Iris will tell you.
Hang up if a man answers."
When the doctors announce that his brother's cancer is incurable, Colin decides to go and see the Queen about it...What follows — his hilarious attempts to bypass Buckingham Palace protocol, the exceptional people he meets, and the tragedy that allows him to face his own grief — is a story of extraordinary power and poignancy. 'Two Weeks with the Queen' is a heartbreaking, side-splitting novel for young and old alike.
