Description of  How to Steal a Piano and Other Stories

The title story tells of a young piano salesman in Harrods who comes across a Bechstein grand in storage that appears to have been neglected. Would anyone miss it? There's only one way of finding out. Grasshopper and Unlucky for Some chronicle the trials and tribulations of single women and online dating. It should be so straightforward, yet even something as simple as meeting up with the right person can be a problem. Pirates invade a usually placid Derbyshire town in Matlock Meg and the Riber Hoard, and in Runner a trio of yobs get the shock of their lives when they try to avoid paying at Mr Ping's Chinese restaurant. Zulu the police dog will entertain, telling his own story in Woof Justiss, and octogenarian Dotty expands her vocabulary (and possibly yours) when she delves into the history of that word.
