An Elegant Solution Tour and Giveaway - Anne Atkins
An Elegant Solution
by Anne Atkins
Genre: Contemporary Fiction
When someone mentions the City of Cambridge you probably think of an iconic building, its four corners
stretching out of the once medieval mud and into the arms of everlasting heaven, its white limestone
yearning into eternity... and without even knowing exactly what ephemeral joys or permanent wonders
the vision brings to mind, it s a safe bet that the one thought which doesn t occur to you is that the Chapel
might not be there by Christmas. Theo (Theophilus Ambrose Fitzwilliam Wedderburn to his friends) is a
Junior Research Fellow in Number Theory. Prompted by a supervisee to demonstrate how to trace the
provenance of bitcoins, Theo happens across a shocking revelation, with embarrassing ramifications for
the whole University. Meanwhile he is being stalked unseen by someone from his childhood. To his
annoyance, Theo falls for a cheap con... and discovers a horror set not only to rock the very seat of power
itself but to change the face of Cambridge and its beautifully iconic image for ever.
Anne Atkins is the author of several novels, most recently An Elegant Solution, a literary thriller set in
Cambridge, with a dashing Aspergic hero.

viewpoint.
She has also written several books of non-fiction. Split Image: Male and Female After God's Likeness, is
a layperson’s guide to biblical teaching about the sexes. Child-Rearing for Fun: Trust Your Instincts and
Enjoy Your Children gives parents the confidence to know they're getting it right, ideas to help them do it
even better, and an awful lot of laughs. Agony Atkins is a compilation of her agony aunt columns in the
Daily Telegraph and contains much wisdom and lots more laughs.
