Would you risk being arrested by Iran’s secret police or subject yourself to a ‘torture massage’ in North Korea just so you could say you’d survived to tell the tale? And would you even want to share a crude-oil bath with a retired croc hunter in Azerbaijan? Or pull a golden ring from a turd? Graham and his wife Lisa have done all of these things. In journeys spanning the globe, they’ve also visited Kashmir when it was the most dangerous place on earth, encountered sucking sharks off Belize and a slapdash psychic in Miami, braved burning barricades in riot-torn Bolivia and been fondled by an elderly voodoo priest in Benin. Written in a chemo ward after a devastating cancer diagnosis, and completed during the Covid-19 lockdown, Travel Agents – the warm and witty follow-up to the best-selling Travel Seekness – continues the story of Lisa and Graham’s hilarious and often hair-raising escapades around the world.

Helen Foster, Differentville.com blogger 'Should I paint the "FREE LISA AND GRAHAM" campaign posters now?' teased the couple's neighbor Teresa when they told her they'd booked flights to Tehran. Though shadowed by the Iranian secret police, Lisa and Graham returned unscathed, as they did when when visiting two of the most dangerous places on earth - the Line of Control in Kashmir and the DMZ in North Korea. Prone to attracting uninvited dangers wherever they go, Lisa and Graham have overnighted in a suspected meth-lab in Medellín, braved burning barricades and dodged dynamite in riot-torn Bolivia, almost frozen to death in a flimsy tent while camping at the Grand Canyon, been fondled by a voodoo priest in Benin, and run a marathon through a bear-infested Romanian forest smeared in honey. But this cracking travelogue isn't only about holidays with the hell factor, it's also a heart-warming and often poignant love story, and a testament to the life-affirming and joyous nature of travel.
