Incredibly and enjoyably plot driven. An action mystery a lá James Bond, where you struggled to guess the twist right up to the end. The plot was interesting and well written/researched, and kept you with the book to the end. Argylle was an interesting character but you learned about him incidentally as the story continues rather than any real diving into introspection. The same was true of the other characters, and some felt flat as there was little time devoted to them. I would still read a series about his life as he becomes a CIA operative though….
