Gripping. Brilliant. Tactless.
It was a time of terror. Tactless robots would attack each other in the street.
Only one woman knows how to stop the terror. One clever, caring woman - Doris Walker.
Doris is a 99-year-old navigator from Amsterdam with a thirst for bacon.
She knows that to stop the tactless robots from continuing their dastardly deeds, she must betray her articulate daughter, Nadine Donaldson.
She gives up her happy life and travels to West Boggins where she attends an important birthday party and acquires some sunny flamingos.
However, the end of the world approaches, and time is running out for Doris. She is left with two options: stop the tactless robots in one hour, or allow the world to end in a ball of fire.
