The third in Susan Howatch´s Church of England novels, Ultimate Prizes begins in 1942 with the world at war, as narrator and archdeacon Nevill Aysgarth finds himself falling into a hopeless obsession over Dido Tallent, beautiful celebrity, and finds himself pursuing her through a swamp of guilt and the destruction of his valued moral compass. . . . Praise for Ultimate Prizes ´´I did not want to put the book down. . . . [Howatch] is a skilled storyteller who makes the reader wonder and care about her people.´´-The Washington Post Book World ´´Thoughtful and thought-provoking . . . Almost every newspaper carries an article or two on the scandalous private life of a public figure. . . . Ultimate Prizes offers a look at both the sacred and profane aspects of religious life as it is lived on the front lines-the story just behind the front page.´´-Chicago Tribune ´´Howatch writes thrillers of the heart and mind. . . . Everything in a Howatch novel cuts close to the bone and is of vital concern. . . . You´ll want to have tea with this wise, witty woman.´´-New Woman ´´Vibrant . . . The author of Glittering Images and Glamorous Powers scores a hat trick with this third novel in her series set amidst the ´cut-and-thrust battles´ and ´sheer Machiavellian skulduggery´ of the Church of England.´´-Kirkus Reviews, 02.03.2011, ePUB.
