With nothing more than a few oddments in his pockets and the clothes on his back, he soon discovered that the world outside was scarcely better.

Robin kindly gave me this book to read and asked if I could provide a review. I am not an avid reader and I do not tend to write reviews but I found it an excellent read. Sadly work around the house had to stop as I couldn't put it down wondering what would happen next. It had more twists than a length of rope and was very pleased he gave me the opportunity of this damn good read.
