  When his old friend Philip Bartels calls him for his advice, Peter Harding cannot imagine the fateful road they are both about to take. For quiet, respectable 'Barty' has decided that his marriage to the beautiful but cold Beatrice must end now that he has met the passionate Lorna. But, as he explains to Harding, his concern for Beatrice is preventing him from leaving her. Perhaps Harding should have offered his advice and simply walked away - but then he too meets Lorna. With fatal results . . .Five Roundabouts to Heaven is a novel of character and psychology. Told in flashbacks, we are held in thrall by our narrator-hero whose own part in the tragedy is far from innocent . . .

  'A book lit by flashes of dark humour, a little shocking yet invigoratingly delightful.' HRF Keating, Crime and Mystery: The 100 Best Books
