Reviews

“I couldn’t put it down and the story captivated me – I couldn’t wait for the next edition.”

Milton Cations – Melbourne, Australia

‘Yet again Douglas Westcott provides the reader with a masterful insight into the City of Bath.’

Peter Groves

‘Westcott blows away the myth that Bath is the graveyard of ambition.’

Patrick McCloy

‘An interesting and believable cast of characters move through the conflict of development versus conservation, still relevant in Bath today as the city continues to deal with how society and social mores have changed over the years.’

Kate Joyce
