An Instance of the Fingerpost

An intellectual thriller set in the Oxford of the 1660s, a time of great ferment - intellectual, religious and political. The action takes place around the suspicious death of Robert Grove, a Fellow of New College.

    Excellent

    I really enjoyed it. The death of Grove is told from 4 different people's viewpoints, and it is subtly different each time. After reading the first viewpoint you think, okay, After reading the second you think, ah, it was like that was it? After reading the third you are a bit confused as to what actually happened, and after the fourth it becomes clear, but you want to go back and read the first viewpoints again.
