Amazon.com description: Product Description: This is the tale of JAMIESON, a selfish fellow who can't see further than his navel but who by his intelligence and great good fortune – comes into a FORTUNE which changes his whole aspect on life, including the personal ambitions he sets out to achieve, the outstretched but rather irresistible pretty little hands he needs to dodge, not to mention at least one person with murder in his soul. The story covers self-interest and treachery, friendship and decency, as it carries the reader on a breath-taking but amusing adventure around the world. How he deals with the amazing MAGGIE, the lady he lives with, flies from London (and her apartment in the grubby suburb of Lewisham), installs himself in a tropical luxury resort where he happily indulges himself – as lovely ladies and murderously-intentioned gentlemen decide to get their hot little hands on his loot. A series of adventures bring him to find refuge with friends (and enemies) in California. Along the way, HENRY meets some of the nicest people that money can buy, and has to deal with the consequences. Trickery, danger, generosity and kindness stalk our hero’s path as he blunders his way through urban (and other) jungles. The funniest, most touching book you may come across for a long time. A great read with happy endings for some people… maybe…. Perhaps the most amusing, witty story you’ll read for a while, this is FAR AND AWAY Saaskia Aark-Bennett’s BEST BOOK TO DATE. Her characters simply leap off the page, arms straight out to embrace you – so be prepared! You’ll find yourself rolling with laughter at their piquant comments, or perhaps you’ll be running for your life. A well-written, enjoyable book. Saaskia Aark-Bennett has become an author to follow. JAMIESON’s FORTUNE should be top of your list for Christmas giving to friends and family, who’ll surely enjoy the intrigues which befall Jamieson along the way. A very funny and enjoyable romp with some very lovable people who are capable of doing perfectly dreadful things. But given the right (or wrong) circumstances, mightn’t we all fall into temptation?
