Some years ago I read a book, I am sure by Len Deighton, under the title of something like Mr. Howerwich and Mrs. ?
It was a story of two people becoming friends in an old people’s home. It was funny and heart warming.
Can anyone tell me the proper title and also, if possible, from where can I obtain a copy.
Also missing from list are: Road to Gandolfo and Road to Omaha
Those books are missing because they were written
by Robert Ludlum.
These two are Robert Ludlum Books, not Len Deighton’s.
I notice one omission from your list of Len’s non-fiction books: Len Deighton’s London Dossier, published in about 1963. I thoroughly enjoyed it and found it very useful
