I came away really disliking our hero, Max Wolfe, who I adored in the first two books. We have seen the world over that no citizen has been able to put a stop to this political correctness that's been crammed down everyone's throat to the point there are no laws for these people. Tony Parsons is a powerful writer and he must have a reason to rub this in everyone's face.

When he is attacked, the British police actually send a group of policemen to protect him. wtf? Over and over the thrust of the story is how the police have been castrated with all the political correctness, never criticize a foreigner, even when one living on the dole and preaching hateful things about the British, in the streets to big crowds of muslims. For the perpetrators of these terrible crimes to be punished, as the British courts have certainly failed in that job. The world over is cheering for these vigilantes. He describes his writing as 'Men Lit', as opposed to the rising popularity of 'Chick Lit'.This book is a compilation of hideous crimes that are (finally) being punished by vigilantes, their hangings shown on youtube and the police wringing their hands and crying for these vigilantes to be brought to justice. His novels typically deal with relationship problems, emotional dramas and the traumas of men and women in our time. Parsons has since published a series of best-selling novels – One For My Baby (2001), Man and Wife (2003), The Family Way (2004), Stories We Could Tell (2006), My Favourite Wife (2007), Starting Over (2009) and Men From the Boys (2010). Parsons had written a number of novels including The Kids (1976), Platinum Logic (1981) and Limelight Blues (1983), before he found mainstream success by focussing on the tribulations of thirty-something men. He is the author of the multi-million selling novel, Man and Boy (1999). Parsons was for a time a regular guest on the BBC Two arts review programme The Late Show, and still appears infrequently on the successor Newsnight Review he also briefly hosted a series on Channel 4 called Big Mouth. Later, he wrote for The Daily Telegraph, before going on to write his current column for the Daily Mirror. He began his career as a music journalist on the NME, writing about punk music. Tony Parsons (born 6 November 1953) is a British journalist broadcaster and author. There is more than one author in the Goodreads database with this name.
