The Stone Monkey by Jeffery Deaver

3.0

As a massive fan of Deaver, I did struggle with this one. Granted, there is still plenty of Deaver's style evident throughout. Just when you think you know what is about to happen, he twists the tale and you end up somewhere that, while you should have seen it coming, had no idea it was happening.

Maybe it was the sheer number of characters you encounter early on, then trying to distinguish who is who as the story goes on. I did stop reading it at one stage and, hating a book beating me, i started again. I'm glad that I did, as I always enjoy Deaver's books more than most. This one just happened to be the least of my favourites
