Using Swindon\u2019s Acme Carpets as a front, Thursday and her colleagues Bowden, Stig and Spike continue their same professions, only illegally. Of course, this front is itself a front for Thursday\u2019s continued work at Jurisfiction, the Policing agency within BookWorld, and she is soon grappling with a recalcitrant new apprentice, an inter-genre war or two, and the inexplicable departure of comedy from the once-hilarious Thomas Hardy books.<\/p>\n<p><a href=\"https:\/\/www.verbotomy.com\/verbotomy.php\">Play Verbotomy<\/a>.
