The Truth About Archie and Pye
Something doesn't add up about Archie and Pye...
After a disastrous day at work, disillusioned junior PR executive Tom Winscombe finds himself sharing a train carriage and a dodgy Merlot with George Burgess, biographer of the Vavasor twins, mathematicians Archimedes and Pythagoras, who both died in curious circumstances a decade ago.
Burgess himself will die tonight in an equally odd manner, leaving Tom with a locked case and a lot of unanswered questions.
Join Tom and a cast of disreputable and downright dangerous characters in this witty thriller set in a murky world of murder, mystery and complex equations, involving internet conspiracy theorists, hedge fund managers, the Belarusian mafia and a cat called µ.

Reviews
Praise for Jonathan Pinnock:
‘Lovely stuff’
'A series of humorous, riotous mathematical mysteries'
‘He makes funny and self-deprecating company’
‘Jonathan Pinnock writes compelling tales with a deliciously wicked glint in his eye’
‘Jonathan Pinnock is Roald Dahl’s natural successor’
'Funny, clever, and sometimes brilliantly daft. A comedy that I am sure would have made Pythagoras, Archimedes and Douglas Adams all laugh out loud'
