Produktinformationen "All God's Creatures"
Mild-mannered editor Ben Fairweather is horrified when his genteel religious magazine is taken over by a fanatical movement that believes animals are closer to God than humans--and should receive Holy Communion. As this bizarre theology sparks a national revival, Ben is swiftly canceled as a pet-phobic bigot and forced to start over as a nightclub pianist. There he meets journalist Anita Scott, who's determined to expose Russian oligarch Oleg Ogorodnikov--recently elevated to the House of Lords--for what she believes is cultural vandalism. But Ogorodnikov's real scheme is far more sinister: a plot to seize control of London's financial system. Unaware that his own fingerprints are all over the theological unrest, Ben and Anita are drawn into a high-stakes world of espionage, art forgery, artificial intelligence, and murder. Anthony Gardner's ingenious caper blends madcap intrigue with sharp satire, capturing the absurdities of modern life--religious extremism, power-hungry elites, and the rise of the machines--in a story that is both thrilling and darkly funny.
