Doctor Stephen Malone is cloning Jesus Christ from the blood on the Turin Shroud. And not just a single Jesus, he's cloning six, so that each of the world's major religions can have one for themselves. It has to be the very worst idea of the twentieth century. And what is more, he is doing it in Brentford!
Mind you, the plucky Brentonians do have a lot of other things on their minds at the moment. Such as putting their plans to hold the Millennial celebrations two years early into action. It is something to do with a tradition, or an old charter, or something.
John Omally and Jim Pooley are once more in the thick of it. As are Norman the corner-shop keeper, Professor Slocombe, Neville the part time barman and all the stars of books previous. And they are all going to be drawn into the adventure of a lifetime.
