See Judys Review See Richards Review Download A Sample Chapter Of Fault Line Read about the Author Exclusive Bonus Content Write a Review for Fault Line Judys Review Loved this book. An amazing thriller full of completely unexpected & clever twists consistently dramatic & unpredictable. The protagonist Jonathan is a delight. Upright moral yet imaginative enough to understand what makes people behave badly under pressure. The murderous family secrets are beautifully played out to the extent that often you dont know if a death is suspicious or not & I especially loved Jonathans teenage love affair with the beautiful Vivien who is so obviously out of his league & so damaged by what has happened to her brother. The scenes on Capri where Viviens great-uncle Francis owns a villa are dreamily beautiful. & I adored the innocent but brave way Jonathan gets involved with every new horrific twist; every nasty surprise (including a brush with the Neapolitan Mafia) that this rich toxic family throw at him. Poor Jonathan is about to lose his innocence forever. & yet in a way he never does. In 2010 as a 60-year-old he finally solves the fraudulent murderous family secrets of the Wren clan. Yet he is just as loveable & instinctively wise as he was when he was 18. Richards Review This is a terrific thriller full of astonishing twists & dramatic turns. Th"

The legend of Faust grew up in the sixteenth century a time of transition between medieval & modern culture in Germany. Johann Wolfgang von Goethe (1749-1832) adopted the story of the wandering conjuror who accepts Mephistopheless offer of a pact selling his soul for the devils greater knowledge; over a period of 60 years he produced one of the greatest dramatic & poetic masterpieces of European literature.
