Reviews

[Ice Bear · Rating 5 out of 5]

Great book, based in Norwich, could not put it down.

[Kylie · Rating 3 out of 5]

I had real problems getting into this, partly because I found the main character to be quite endearing and he suffers a conga-line of humiliations and distrust throughout - which is especially difficult to sit through during the first half. However once the plot started tying itself together I found it much more enjoyable.

Pretty sure I read this back when I was 14 or so, though it's not really jogging any memories on the reread.

This author seems to be quite fond of writing needlessly long sentences. I can practically feel myself running out of breath while reading them in my head.

Going to give this one 4 stars because I am very familiar with the locations this book is set in. The author has either done his homework, or lives in Norwich. Not a bad story either.

Made me want to see Norwich cathedral.
