I quickly understood why they behaved in the way they did. Romance, mystery, women’s roles in society, racism, sex, violence, industrial revolution, and unionism. A must, must read.

Book three was great. Had many references to my home town of Buffalo New York during its glory days. Touching the surface of jealousy, racism, materialism and love vs. lust. Lots of fun!

I was captivated by this final book of the trilogy. I have always enjoyed wide ranging tales that develop through the generations and this book ticks all the boxes. The factual content of the whole trilogy is outstanding. A great tale which would make a helluva film!! Congratulations to Mr. Bonsey

Synopsis of "Now Who’s The Joker"

Book Three of the trilogy
“Playing The Cards You’ve Been Dealt."

The sinking of the Titanic was a tragic event that affected many people in different ways. Many of the funeral services were held throughout the British Isles and were often no more than memorials as not all the bodies of those that perished were recovered. Angela-Rose St.John-Brown married Desmond Blacksmith the following year. The St.John-Brown and Cane bloodlines were to become connected in ways they never imagined. The twentieth century spawned a different breed of young person than the early Victorian era had so carefully tried to control. Great strides in the Industrial Revolution opened young minds to new horizons, inventions and dramatically changed social perspectives.
Desmond carried a secret fear the permeated his ability to function unimpaired whilst it caused his wife Angela-Rose to develop a wandering eye. The birth of their children Brian Ojukwae and Lillian-Jane do little to calm their troubles waters, in fact they add to them. Intense sibling rivalry widens the gap as the children grow up and go their separate ways avoiding each other at all costs. This rivalry had the potential to tear the family apart.
A sudden death in a winter storm in Buffalo New York squarely places Brian and Lillian together where they struggle with their hostility towards each other. They are forced to face not only their demons but also the demons of a family friend and business acquaintance J.M.Fetters, a lawyer to the family. A destructive plan that has been hatched on the family for over half a century is gradually revealed to the siblings. Australia and Africa become the stages upon which we learn more about the inner thoughts and feeling of Brian Ojukwae and Lillian-Jane. Even the wealthy can resort to the more base actions such as murder when they are able to rationalize it. The irony that closes this saga is unmistakable and unexpected.

Having read the books one and two I though I had a handle on where this was going, wrong. This final book in the trilogy was like setting a third place at the table, it just made sense. I loved the fallible characters of Lillian and Brian. I quickly understood why they behaved in the way they did, their whole beings were a culmination of many years of changing values. The stories in this trilogy could easily be, Romance, mystery, women’s roles in society, racism, sex, violence, the whole thing has everything that interests you, even the industrial revolution, and unionism, if you like. A must, must read.
