A review by jw1949
The Critic by Peter May

Eventually bored with this one (DNF = did not finish). The story is confusing and I have no empathy at all with the main man - Enzo Macleod. It's a silly name, he's a touch arrogant and not a little misogynistic. I'm Scottish, know France very well and have little patience with this superficial nonsense. It is odd though 'cos I thoroughly enjoyed the Lewis trilogy, Entry Island and Coffin Road - all absolutely excellent and have recently read the first 2 of the China thrillers which are a much lighter, easier read but enjoyable none the less.
