The Fourth QuadrantPaperback, 14 January 2014

The Fourth Quadrant tells the tale of Anil Patel. A series of professional disasters force Anil (24, single and luckless) to swallow his pride and join the family business. But this is not the usual sort of family business. Not only is murder casually dropped into the job description, but our hero continually finds himself in situations that would have lesser men running for an easier line of work. Driven by financial necessity and the institutional lunacy of a multinational corporation, he leaves his home in Manchester and embarks on a trip to India, a return to his roots that will change his life forever. But there is more to life than business. Anil is also driven by the love of a girl. A love that grows stronger with each day of absence. The Fourth Quadrant describes a road trip in which the outer limits of love, stress and companion animal welfare are seen through the shimmering heat of Rajasthan. The people and events described will bring smiles of recognition to all.
