Michael Turner is still fighting the demons of his childhood. He grew up alone; an orphan lost in a maze of institutions and foster homes, surviving on dreams of success, and of finding a place where he was wanted and could belong. Now, in his early twenties, he is at last beginning to escape his past. He has a loving fiancee and is taking the first steps in a promising legal career. And when, unexpectedly, a powerful father figure enters his life, it seems that all Michael's childhood dreams are being realised. But dreams come with a price. Michael has allowed a dangerous cuckoo to enter the nest. One who is plagued by his own demons, who can manipulate the needs and vulnerabilities of others to dreadful effect . . .

Paperback. Etat : Good. Does love have to be claustrophobic, greedy and possessive? This is the central question explored in Patrick Redmond's The Puppet Show. For Michael Turner, it is not until he meets Becky that he learns what it is to love and be loved. Between the children's home in the East End, where child abuse lurked in the guise of the 'kindly' Mr. Cook, and the foster home where his parents kept their distance, love was in short supply. Now, though, he has found it and--as a young lawyer on the brink of a successful legal career in the city--he is happy. Happy that is until he meets Max. Max is the father figure that Michael has always craved. But can Michael let Max into his life without compromising his love for Becky? Although some sequences in The Puppet Show are unconvincing, there is a darkening sense of apprehension as Max careers between overwhelming financial generosity and violence to get what he wants--emotional control and dependence. The Puppet Show is Patrick Redmond's second novel. Like The Wishing Game before it, this psychological thriller is compelling if a little inconsequential. But if it's a page-turner you're after, then this exploration of the vulnerable, hungry side of love will be ideal. --Jane Honey. 484 pages. N° de réf. du vendeur 1430209
