"Finally the Mystery Man books begin to make done sense. Am liking the 'rehabbed' main character more than the previous books. Makes things more believable and allows us more to focus on the story, rather than the distracting foibles!" — Mike (4 out of 5 stars)

" best of the bunch. wierd ending though. "
" Although outside my usual taste, I found this hilarious! Will definitely be reading more of Colin Bateman's books. "
" Always happy to find a new Bateman Mystery Man to read. Pure escapism, not too cerebral but witty and a bit dark. Only annoyed I fall asleep before I want to when reading it. "
" An enjoyable read but I preferred the previous ones. Intriguing to see where he goes from here. "
" Loved this, read it in 3 evenings, laughed out loud a LOT. Twisty, turny, silly plot. Dark humour aplenty. "
