Had been with me for more than a decade. Had purchased second hand from a used book store for a pittance . (Rs. 20, if anyone's keen to know 😄)

Enjoyed this one much more than I have the last few Richard Jury books I've read. The plot is properly twisty and the characters fun, although the ending disappointed and the politics haven't aged well. Excellent procrastination reading!
