Les Arnott

The Assassin Reassessed Les Arnott

The Assassin Reassessed denotes the welcome return of Les Arnott after a lengthy delay since his brilliant first novel - The Unassuming Assassin. Once again we are treated to a real page-turner as Les follows the further fortunes of the hapless Mel Roberts. He writes in an entirely new genre which touches on Christianity, morality, retribution and vigilantism. If this were not enough, he incorporates violence, mystery, politics and romance so that there really is something in there for every reader. Add to this the kind of social comment which laments a society plunging into decay and you will begin to grasp his world view formed when he was Sheffield Chairman of Magistrates. When Les writes, he does so from a broad depth of knowledge and experience. There are not enough novelists today who use either Sheffield or Lincolnshire as their backcloth. Les, a political writer, teacher and former parliamentary candidate, helps put that right!
