MUCH as a surgical nurse sets out the instruments; the cook sets out the ingredients and the painter sets outs the colours, in the novel's opening gambit we have a wordsmith setting out the ambience and character props; the construct and semblance of what could be an ambitious piece of writing.
The author's creative crosshairs target the disturbing phenomena of tortured youths turned sniper killers; terrorism from the rooftops.
What was once a rarity, now too commonplace.
Of an episodic nature the scenario has a complex backdrop of a mother whose marriage has lost the gloss of its earlier promise and whose children seem Indifferent to her love and concern.
We are are left with a sinister notice of darker intent.
Once a cherubic little boy who the world seemed to love could now be a killer on the rooftop, looking down now on that world with hate?
A fractured family and a fractured world.
It should prove a compelling read.
