I have rewritten the plot summary because the previous text had various issues which were difficult to disentangle.

Issues:

- It made no mention of ventriloquism which is a major theme throughout the book.

- It contained grammatical errors and non-sequiturs.

- Less importantly it had some minor inaccuracies, focused on irrelevant plot points and failed to explain who the characters were.

My revised text is slightly longer but remains shorter than 400 words, as per the guidance for plot summaries. Herbert-kavan (talk) 11:39, 23 March 2024 (UTC)[reply]

I should also note that this book is very hard to summarise. The plot is a convoluted and is driven by coincidences, so I'm not surprised that this been a struggle to write a summary. Herbert-kavan (talk) 11:43, 23 March 2024 (UTC)[reply]
