The Last Musketeer (e-book) (used book) | Jane Corbett | bookbook.eu

Description

Torn between her Irish and African roots, Fela returns to Ireland with her close pals, Simon and Jonas, to join one of Dublin's fast-growing pharmaceutical companies. But the innocent Ireland she recalls from her childhood has moved on, and her hopes of a bright future are quickly shattered. The close bond between the three friends is increasingly threatened by acts of greed, betrayal, and murder, until finally she is the only one left.

Part conspiracy thriller, part love story, The Last Musketeer follows Fela's journey as she makes one horrifying discovery after another in her determination to unravel the mystery and uncover the truth.

***

"The Last Musketeer is a pacey, intelligent and very topical thriller about trust and betrayal within a group of friends, with a rattling, high-stakes plot that tantalises until the very end."

Kate Saunders, Costa prize-winning novelist and Sunday Times book reviewer

The Last Musketeer is imbued, right to its complex core, with Jane Corbett's feeling for the wild places of Ireland that she has grown to know and love. She has the wonderful ability to make the dramatically unfolding dynamic of Fela's discoveries find their own metaphor in the theatrically dramatic beauty of the land she's returned to.
