Amid a national religious revival, this belief becomes mainstream and Ben is cancelled as a petphobic bigot.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\n\u003cp\u003eHe finds a new job as a pianist in a nightclub. There he meets Anita Scott, a journalist bent on exposing the Russian oligarch Oleg Ogorodnikov - newly elevated to the House of Lords - whom she accuses of cultural vandalism.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\n\u003cp\u003eThe scheming Ogorodnikov is actually involved in something far more sinister: a plot to take over London's financial system. Little realising that his fingerprints are all over the theological unrest too, Ben and Anita are drawn into a world of spies, art forgery, AI and murder, with their own lives on the line.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\n\u003cp\u003eAnthony Gardner's ingenious caper combines madcap excitement with a deftly satirical portrayal of the crazy beliefs, chaos-spreading Russians and rise of the robots which seem to define our age.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eHardback | 256 pages | Published November 2025\u003c\/strong\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e","brand":"Lightning","offers":[{"title":"Default Title","offer_id":63956780581213,"sku":"9781785634406","price":18.99,"currency_code":"EUR","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0978\/3459\/8749\/files\/9781785634406.jpg?v=1774263734","url":"https:\/\/www.thebookmark.ie\/products\/all-gods-creatures","provider":"The Bookmark ","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
