The Three Wives of Charlie Mellon

Charlie Mellon is a self-made man who doesn't always have the plans the right way up. What he does have is a heart of gold, a wife he loves, and one thousand left-foot Adidas trainers. However, "life has flicked a small stone of causation sliding down the hill of fate" for Charlie, and very soon, his house-and even his wife-could be swept away. To prevent this, all he needs to do is find 1,000 right-foot Adidas trainers, be in two places at once, and dodge the murderous intent of a builder who completely misunderstands Charlie's complicated relationship with the man's wife. That can't be too difficult, can it? The Three Wives of Charlie Mellon is the story of one man's determined-and sometimes hilarious-attempt to keep his life from falling apart.
