The Return of General Forefinger by Giles Cooper
A BBC Radio production of a "Comedy of Motive".
Augusta Forefinger, the elderly widow of a 19th century Empire-builder lives now in the observatory of her family's ancestral home in County Cork, Limerick, Ireland.
She has an incredible, not to mention eccentric, ambition ... she wants to bring home to Ireland EVERY SINGLE statue of her late husband home to Ireland ... regardless of location or cost.
Her distant cousin, who lives with her, is ready to humor her in this remarkable undertaking, but the resulting events could prove
... well, terrifying (in the humorous sense) might be too strong a word ...
