Inhaltsangabe

Winner of the Literary Titan Gold Book Award and Book One of The Path Finder Series, Paths Not Yet Taken is 340 intriguing, thought-provoking pages of crises, action and emotion, frequently punctuated by wry humour and the occasional laugh. It's a sharp, political satire with genuine heart, which exposes how powerless those in power actually are. Like all good satirical novels, it’s a fiction that’s a conceivable stone's throw from reality.

A ministerial visit to a Midlands food distribution centre goes badly wrong. The prime minister vanishes without trace. As the security services and police launch a frantic search for the missing PM, the government scrambles to maintain its composure and manage the situation.

One man - warehouse worker Simon Pope - inadvertently ends up at the centre of things. Just where he's dreamt of being... and now wishes he wasn't. Pope harbours a secret life and a dark past, putting the unsuspecting, missing politician at risk of losing more than his job. The resolution of the crisis is threatened by assorted bureaucrats, trying to manage a situation that a rigidly structured system is not designed to accommodate, by identifying and looking to eliminate a useful scapegoat.

If you like drama, romance, dogs or drink, this book definitely has plenty for you. If not, there's always the ongoing chaos, the political shenanigans and the relationship intrigues to hold your interest.

Ultimately, one spur-of-the-moment decision is the catalyst for others - including the reader - to reflect on their own lives and to consider decisive actions of their own.
