I am going to recommend British Summertime by Paul Cornell. If you like, I will lend you my copy.
It's a time-travel sf novel, with much of it set in a recognisable time-and-place (Bath, early 2000s), interesting female lead character, and very British. There is some scary/nasty gore but not too much for me to cope with. We bought it on a whim, in Bath, in 2004, and I loved it. I still love it. It's very suitable for St George's Day. I might read it when I get home.
Miscellaneous. Eclectic. Random. Perhaps markedly literate, or at least suffering from the compulsion to read any text that presents itself, including cereal boxes.
