Paper Chase (English, Paperback, Alexander Hugh)

A young auditor is performing an assignment when she discovers something odd – then something odder – and the more she looks the worse it seems to get. There are initially unexplained elements of paranoia and police activity, in a world where it is suddenly impossible to know who or what outlandish things to believe. The action moves through Scotland, London and the French Alps, before returning to Edinburgh for the denouement. The story is woven through with some Nigerian morality tales and it questions identity, motives, randomness and to what extent we can control our own destiny.
