1936: London is abuzz with gossip about the affair between Edward VIII and Mrs. Simpson. But the king is not the only member of the aristocracy with a hard decision to make. Owen Montignac, the handsome and charismatic descendent of a wealthy land-owning family, is anxiously awaiting the reading of his late uncle's will. For Owen has run up huge gambling debts and casino boss Nicholas Delfy has given him a choice: find £50,000 by Christmas - or find yourself six feet under.

So when Owen discovers that he has been cut out of the will in favour of his beautiful cousin Stella, it is time to prove just how cunning he can be... And Owen is nothing if not inventive - even a royal crisis can provide the means for profit. And for murder...

A moving and insightful book… stylistically fluent and engages the reader with every word
A narrative pace that never flags, a solid cast of characters, a vividly imagined recreation of period

Gripping novel, very entertaining. Some of it slightly far fetched but the themes and characters are so well woven this is not problematic. The way it ends left me wanting more, as there are so many questions about the future. Narration was excellent.

I wish there was a sequel!

Superb character development and weaving together to make a gripping story, hard to listen to at times but utterly compelling.

Another brilliant Boyne novel.

A few jarring moments (Milton Keynes and plastic chairs?) main gripe is with the outcome. There was ample opportunity to deliver a more just ending.

Dissatisfying ending

John Boyne can weave such a great tale. His stories have numerous unexpected twists and turns. This is about the 4th book I have either listened to or read and I'll be looking for another very soon.

Another great book from John Boyne
