A Fashionable Pursuit?

This is a really good piece about Conspiracy Theory:

(I've stopped live linking, as so many sites seem to conspire against me...)

Having finished "Bloodland" by Alan Glynn, it is now safe to reveal that it is what was once called "a rattling good read".

The characters are engaging, the plot has zap and is plausible, or at least it seems so from my scant viewing of television news reports.

Most people are safe from conspiritors. We are so small and inconsequential that the high dramas reserved for those in the public eye just pass us by.

Just as well, I suppose...
