review 1: Yet another example of that the best laid plans go ashtray. Derek Wyman had a plan which unfortunately didn't turn out exactly the way he would have wanted. Not in his dreams would he have expected a result of something like this. It happens with everyone.If you intend to read it, i would not suggest not to. But don't keep your expectations too high.There are few things which do not seem plausible at all. Like sb here shared about a BMW chasing down a Porsche.So is the thing with London Boming and a stabbing case.I think these things were created to divert the reader's attention and to make the plot more interesting. It's been successful upto a certain limit.So if you do not happen to like the book, don't blame the person who recommended you to it, if he... more did.
review 2: I liked the layering of the plot - were the suicide of the set designer and the murder of his lover a simple murder suicide, or did the lover's past as an MI5 agent give it a more sinister cast?The intervention (or interference) of the mysterious Mr. Browne and his agents, and their attempts to intimidate Banks and his lover, and others related to the case certainly gives credence to the later. Of course if spooks are around, Banks will call Dick Burgess. There are twists and turns and a horrific ending.One of the things I like about this series is that is takes place in real time - each book has are contemporary political and social happenings along with the endless playlist of Banks' current musical finds. And Banks is aging and relationships are changing at a steady pace. The other characters continue to develop - especially Winsome and Gervaise. less
