Negative Positive
Title: Clever plot, great characterisations.
Review: Paperchase is the story of Ian Gidman, a builder who is in partnership with Richard Tweedle. Tweedle plots to rob Gidman and then the fun begins... As Ian Gidman rebuilds his life, Richard Tweedle seems to always be there, ready to do him harm. And then Ian learns that he is going to die. So now the question. How far does a man have to be pushed before he hits back?The plotting in Paperchase is excellent, all the strings coming together right at the end. The only reason I didn't give it five stars is because the story was a little slow off the blocks. But it's well worth hanging in because the tension builds gradually but inexorably towards a stunning conclusion. Paperchase is an easy, satisfying read that I recommend.
