Inadvertent cross dressing. Attempted murder. Jail break. A waltz at a funeral. A hernia the size of Guernsey.

Her dad, the proud, charmingly intelligent, self-made man who made people laugh, was in the grip of early onset Alzheimer’s. His brilliant mind, which saw him building power stations and literally bringing light into the lives of others, had succumbed to darkness.
