I said to the old un “I will try to get this reviewed within the week“; a couple of hours later here's the review. I just could not put this short book down, the setting, the characters and the plot were totally believable and easy to picture in my mind as I read on. It reminded me of a serious Bluestone 42; I just hope, and demand, that this is not a one-off. I declare that I don't know Rod and that he doesn't owe me money, for my money though, IF we can get more from him we have the Kipling for our age.
