tenthnazgul 's review for:
Red Sparrow
by Jason Matthews
A spy thriller written by someone who has walked the dark streets, and who's expertise in clandestine operations is matched by a passion for local delicacies - tonally appropriate little dishes that he has gently folded in to various scenes with care and delicacy.
The book is written with a terseness that reminds me of Le Carre, and a mastery of the language that most spy thrillers these days simply don't show. What's not to love?
4.5 stars, but only because nothing's perfect.
