Review by NicK
The story is superb and keeps you guessing all along (I guessed some but not all of the twists) and the wider cast are all worthy additions in their own right. I romped through this over 2 days. If you like Bond and/or just love a good mystery, you will hugely enjoy this book. Looking forward to the next instalment but please fit in a Malabar House as well.
