The privileged daughter of a cleric, she's been protected from the extremist gangs who enfore the One Church's will. Her boyfriend Ming is a bad influence, fo course, with infadel parents who are constantly in trouble with the religious authorities. But Cass has no intention of letting their different backgrounds drive them apart. Then they stumble across a corpse. Who killed him? How did his body end up in their secret childhood haunt? And is this man's death connected to other, older murders? As the political atmosphere grows feverish, Cass realises she and Ming face extreme danger.

5.0 out of 5 stars Unforgettable!, 13 Sep 2008
By 
This review is from: Bad Faith (Paperback)
Be warned that when you start this book you'll not be able to put it down! Crammed with a host of memorable characters, a plot that is completely - and all too horribly - believeable, and enough twists and turns to keep you on the edge of your seat, this is a veritable tour de force from a writer I fully expect to - and if there's any justice in the publishing world she most certainly should - win a host of prizes.
Cass and Ming will live in your memory for a very long time, as you laugh with them, cry with them, and battle the forces of The One Church with them.
Tremendous!

5.0 out of 5 stars Don't pick it up if you're short of time, 13 Sep 2008

Ms. Rowena M. Love (Ayrshire, Scotland) - See all my reviews

This review is from: Bad Faith (Paperback)
This is not a book to lift and lay. The minute you start reading you're gripped by the characters and what is happening to them and are desperate to read on to find what happens to them.

Organised religion, fundamentalism, politics, violent death - not exactly easy subjects, but Gillian Philip's deft handling makes it anything but a difficult read. This would be a fundamentally great book for school book groups (or ones elsewhere, for that matter!) as there is so much to discuss.

I agree with a previous reviewer to say that it's only a matter of time before this book scoops some major prizes.

5.0 out of 5 stars Astoundingly good, 29 Aug 2008
This review is from: Bad Faith (Paperback)
BAD FAITH is ASTONISHINGLY good. Think Orwell's 1984 with black humour. It's easy TO read but it's not an EASY read. It covers religion, politics, nationalism, crime, parental and teenage angst, relationships, hidden secrets...something for everyone. It's essentially a very dark novel dealing with big issues, but it's written with such a light touch that you actually find yourself sniggering in several parts.

If BAD FAITH doesn't make it onto the shortlists for several prizes then I don't know what will. It certainly gets my vote.

Also worth looking at Spider.
