Similar archetype to the first book. Several unconnected threads that coalesce as the book progresses.
It is a fast book to read.
Starts off strong but gets really tangled 60% onwards. No wonder the TV show creators decided to significantly alter the second half of the season based on this book.
I threw down the mental penalty flag when I realized this was a twist on the movie Die Hard. I love Alan Rickman so the 'bad guy' immediately had the face and voice of him from that realization on. , and give kudos for the second plot, which I didn't quite catch all the subtleties of but I did get the general ideas.
If the first one was good, this was absolutely excellent. From the opening page till the final, the book holds your attention with its suspense and mystery and spy craft. The second instalment in the Slough Horses series was so much better than the first.
I'm writing this as I've just finished reading the book, and I find my self still so moved by the final chapter of the book. Sure, the action and everything got over some time back, but the book doesn't forget to give you some emotional moments as well.
I loved this.
