"A murder, a funeral and a pink slip."

Adopted as a youth into a social experiment to improve lives of deprived children, Reggie had done well, from poor kid seeing his mother killed by his father, to himself a father in a most!y contented marriage, a good job with the patent office, and loving, If eccentric godparents. But it all falls apart when his godfather is found dead and Reggie believes he is thought to be the murderer.

A convoluted story of religious obsession and ,t,lreal - mad, perhaps, but, well, solid. Narration by Harry Shaw adds to the substance of these people, each given their own distinctive voice and the whole read with good pacing, clear modulation which stops the text ever becoming boring, and just a little touch of emotional imput. A good performance.

My thanks to the rights holder of The Vintage Club who, at my request freely gifted me with a complimentary copy. The protagonists might have been OTT in beliefs progressions but it was still an exciting, easy to read thriller which da Vinchi code.readers are likely to enjoy. Good read, good fun. Give it a go.
