The House of Rumour by Jake Arnott

5.0

Fantastic novel threading together a secret history of the second half of the 20th Century, mingling mid-century science fiction, Nazis, and 80's English post-punk. Ian Fleming is a point of view character, the relationship of Scientology to Aleister Crowley is explored, and one chapter conflates the lyrics of "Somewhere Over the Rainbow" with David Bowie's "Starman." Rich, fun, and associative. This is IT.
