## Customer Reviews

### ⭐⭐⭐⭐ 







  
  
    Interesting insights; rambling and over-complicated writing style.
  

*by C***  on Reviewed in the United Kingdom 🇬🇧 on 31 May 2022*

I've read most of the books written about the Profumo Affair, seen the films, the Ward stage show and the TV drama. This book certainly provides great background on Ward's life, his character and the overlapping circles in which he moved. It isn't an easy read, though. The author often seems to be trying to bend the English language into positions it wasn't designed for. Cliches and subhead-style summings-up become tiresome. The reader also sometimes wonders whether it's worth reading a few paragraphs on a character who will disappear completely in a couple of pages. It's a shame because there's a hugely compelling story to be told: how the upper and lower classes mingled in bomb-damaged postwar London and anything could be bought if you knew where to go and who to ask.

    A Grim Story
  

*by R***Y on Reviewed in the United Kingdom 🇬🇧 on 2 May 2018*

A grim story, from which no one emerges with any credit.  The book is a beautifully written shocking exposé of a section of the so called upper class who were only too pleased to befriend Stephen Ward while he satisfied their sexual appetites, but who were only to keen to run for cover when the political establishment were out to get him.  Not one of these people was prepared to help him in his hour of need.  The police and the judiciary rightly come in for severe criticism.  In the end Ward was left with little option but to commit suicide, although even that is mired in uncertainty. An interesting and exceptionally well researched book, which leaves a disagreeable taste in the mouth.
