[Sharon Dean · Rating 5 out of 5]

If you like to play golf and like to vacation on cruise ships, Unicorn Redux is a novel to take when you next sail. Not that you’ll ever want to play golf in Scotland or cruise again. Alan Thompson has written another page turner that’s intricately plotted and that propels the reader from the southern United States to places in the UK. A map helps readers to follow the journey. Thompson describes all these places with the eye of someone who’s been there. Except for the crimes involved, he makes me want to journey to all the places he maps out.
