Mr Magenta by Christopher Bowden

Thank you @ZooloosBT #ChristopherBowden for letting me part of this tour and reviewing this book. I like the front cover of Mr Magenta its very peaceful makes me want to go there and read this book. For me the font size was really good and liked there was paragraphs in the book which breaks up the full page of writing. I was very fascinate to find out who Mr Magenta was and to Stephen auntie Flora. Mr Magenta is contemporary fiction which 173 pages. I liked Christopher Bowden writen style it very descriptive and engaging. 4 stars a good read and is out to buy now. This is the first book i have read by Christopher Bowden and i would read more. Book Blurb Stephen Marling thought he knew his aunt Flora. But when he inherits her house in a quiet south London square a series of discoveries among her papers brings to light another person entirely. Who, for example, is ‘Mr Magenta’ and what part did he play in her life? In the process of uncovering the secrets of one life, Stephen is forced to re-evaluate his own and decide what he really wants. Was he right to turn his back on Nancy Steiner, the young actress he met in New York, when he came home to take up his inheritance? Interweaving past and present, the story takes him from a Brooklyn bookshop to a theatre in Marseille to a cottage on the east coast of England where the truth about Mr Magenta is finally revealed.
