This book grabs you from the word go and doesn’t let go. You get drawn into all the characters and John Bartlett takes you on a high speed ride not only through the real life world of motorsport but the frankly chilling world of the British justice system and the shadowy world of freemasonry.
I couldn’t put it down throughout reading and the style of writing puts you right inside the head of the characters involved with all of the emotional roller coaster that goes with it. 10/10

Chequered Justice:  Interesting perspective into the British legal system. I was caught up in the drama of it all, a normal life, changed by the system.

An intriguing journey through the early life of an ambitious, intelligent and determined young man as he struggles with dyslexia though a linear education system.  But dyslexia can be a boon as well as a disability. Let out in the big wide world, using his ability to think laterally he wangles, finds back doors & and bends the rules in order to achieve the success, his teachers said he would never have.  Then, only to have it all stripped away by a system that doesn’t like people who think outside the box.

Being dyslexic myself, I found myself sympathising with the treatment of the main character during his school years (though I hasten to add, my school days were not quite as draconian as Will’s).
This book stands as both an inspiration and a warning to all young people with similar learning difficulties.

Having read and thoroughly enjoyed Chequered Justice, I couldn’t wait to find out more about Will Middleton’s early years. This book does not disappoint. 

I read the authors first book (Chequered Justice) a couple of years ago and loved it. This is the story of “Will Middleton’s” early years. Its a story about Will Middletons (though it is obvious its based on the authors life) early years growing up in the 60s and 70s and how, through sheer drive and determination, he becomes a professional racing driver. I especially loved the stories when he’s a boy going through the education system in the 60s. Being dyslexic in the 60s sounds no fun but as you’ll see he seems to get his own back in the endless mischief he gets up to! Sometimes sad but more often hilariously funny this was a great easy fun read with the excitement of motor racing thrown in for good measure.  Very highly recommended.

“….started them yesterday, fantastic read.”

“Two fantastic books and a most remarkable story!  There is no question this would make an incredible movie.  It’s been a great privilege to discover material by an almost unknown author, and to voice the recording of the Chequered Justice audio book … and to see where it’s now heading…”

,,,,thanks for the signing today in Southampton, already started reading Chequered Justice and I am hooked!

This was definitely a high octane thriller. By the end you still weren’t quite sure how much was fact and how much was fiction, but it is certainly an enjoyable read. The chapters did try to make it clear whether they referred to the past or the present, but it could still be a bit confusing. Those who know a lot about motor racing, or the legal system, will probably get the most out of the story.

Chequered justice was a great book and a massive injustice. Maybe David Icke has a point. We are all being controlled. By a force beyond our control.
