Hi Sensual

Desperately trying to give an idea without giving too much away!

Ummm.....
It concerns a group of (elderly) friends who regularly meet to play classical music, and are connected with old instruments in some way. One is found ....severely inconvenienced, and his surviving friends look into this, which leads them into the arcane, fascinating, and, well, sometimes "difficult" world of very rare instruments....
I found it incredibly involving, and the sort of book you learn a lot of great interest from, almost without noticing it, if that's not too precious.
One of those books you keep on the shelves, not taking down the charity shop................

And I found a quote from a crit :-
'Tension that resonates like flawlessly tuned strings … complex and sumptuously pleasing.' The Guardian 'Praps a bit OTT, but close.

Enjoy..
