"synopsis" may belong to another edition of this title.
Robert Goddard is the Edgar Award-winning, internationally bestselling author of The Ways of the World: A James Maxted Thriller, Long Time Coming, and Into the Blue, which won the first WHSmith Thumping Good read Award, among others. Goddard read history at the University of Cambridge and lives in Cornwall.
What a deceptive reader Paul Shelley is. As he begins Goddard's novel about intrigue in eighteenth-century London, you think he is a perfectly suitable, if uninspiring, companion. But as Goddard's panoply of characters make their appearances, you begin to see Shelley's astonishing range. He proves himself a master of virtually any British dialect while also imbuing Goddard's rich cast of characters with suitable degrees of churlishness, malevolence, and disdain. The novel concerns the pursuit of a mysterious ledger whose contents could destroy the powerful and very likely overturn a monarchy. There's suspense enough to keep the reader listening, but Shelley's skills cinch the deal. M.O. © AudioFile 2002, Portland, Maine-- Copyright © AudioFile, Portland, Maine
