I’m a great fan of Christopher Brookmyre, though this book, Attack of the Unsinkable Rubber Ducks appears less edgy and less irreverent than his other books (and less rude language) all of which is a pity though the book is clever and amusing, but not outright-laugh-a-minute as some of his others. The central mystery is really captivating and keeps the reader guessing.
Attack of the Unsinkable Rubber Ducks by Christopher Brookmyre 7/10

Jack Parlabane, erstwhile journalist, (and noted sceptic and expert on deception) is asked to help in an experiment proving the existence of psychic phenomena – and finds himself absolutely stumped as to the explanation for how things have happened – he also finds it very dangerous as folks appear to be dropping like flies. So what is happening ?
