Well I totally disagree with the previous reviewer. I think it is interesting to know, for instance, about John and Stuart's intimate relationship, and all the historical factual material that is in the book, including photographs. I also think it is vital to know about the uncertainty and bouts of aggression that John had, also in relation to his feelings for Stuart. And the suggested relationship between this and Stu's untimely death is interesting, to say the least. I'm not a big reader, who is these days, but this is one of the rare books I read in one go. Because of the suspense, the verifiable facts, the background, and the human factor that shimmers through the story between the lines, as it does in good work.
