I see there is also a book The 100 Year Old Man Who Jumped Out The Window and Disappeared ... is that the same or different?

tried reading that one cookie, but it was getting a bit silly and far fetched so I stopped. Be interested to know what you thought about it

I've been trying to read it for a couple of weeks CP. It isn't thrilling me.

The100 yer old man is polarising . I loved it. Considered it whimsy  a first. Then I re read it Amd got some more out of it. The third time I got it. Laughed my head off.

I just finished "The Lady in Gold" about Gustav Klimt's portrait of Adele Bloch-Bauer and loved it.
Not sure what I'll start next, but have a new copy of "Fool" the Swedish food magazine so might thumb through that.

I'm now reading The Break by Deb Fitzpatrick. It is set in Margaret River. About a young couple who decide to go down there when they lose their jobs. However they become involved in trying to prevent a development go ahead. I'm really enjoying it.

I've just checked the book CP. You may be right. The author is from Fremantle, the book published by Fremantle Press and is a 2014 book.
