This is a tale of a modern day Robin Hood. Jardigo Batista is wealthy – very wealthy, but he wants to become wealthier. On the face of it, he has a worthy mission in life; to help the poor of the world by ‘redistributing’ the assets of rich men and women. Like the real Robin Hood, however, he uses any means at his disposal, whether above the law or not. Is his mission genuine or does he have some other less philanthropic reason for his deeds? Jardigo gathers together his band of ‘merry men’ to his castle from all walks of life and backgrounds to assist him in his cause. David is a young Englishman who is down on his luck and is attracted to Jardigo’s operation, drawn there, like many others, by greed and envy. Will good triumph over evil? The author is a retired Deputy Headteacher who lives on the Lincolnshire coast and is the author of several fantasy novels which began with ‘The Fantastic Journey’, available from www.arimapublshing.co.uk and online bookstores like Amazon.

This is an absorbing novel concerning online fraud. Jardigo is a supposed do-gooder, but there are dark sides to the story as the reader will discover. The author has created a saga that gets you thinking about human greed and leaves you wondering whether it can ever be quelled. I can thoroughly recommend this book to all readers.
