Ben Abbot, a stockbroker turned estate agent, is asked to investigate the death of his friend Reg. This involves asking questions of people who have been friends since childhood, unearthing long held secrets and ruining the lives of others in order to bring justice to Reg.Rereading my review stirred no memories of the actual book so I looked up a synopsis of this novel. This helped stir some memory but not enough to really bring it to mind so I guess I didn't enjoy it that much. Certainly not enough to read anything else by this author.
