The concept for the novel is grounded in notions of guilt and forgiveness: 4 friends form a business delivering apologies for those unable or unwilling to make them for themselves.
However the level of psychological,physical and criminal abuse enacted in the novel,shows to this reader that their intention is closer to writing a parody of the criminal genre and since reviewers do not wish to reveal the degree of gratuitous violence in the novel readers are being deceived and will find themselves reading a novel which is really a masquerade
for every form of inhumanity.Sorry
