A review by vsbedford
Lethal Pursuit by Will Thomas

2.0

The first Barker & Llewelyn that I did not enjoy - the plot is OK, and the looming clouds of WWI and German nationalism add a frisson of realness to what is otherwise a fantasy mystery series, but I find the Rebecca/marriage plot so GD BORING, especially as, to me, Rebecca reads like an insufferable prig. I can't stand that character and I found the novel sort of dragging its feet whenever she appears. Let's hope we step away from the marital home and into the Whitehall offices much, much more in subsequent books. A recommend, but with a definite shrug.

I received an ebook from the publishers and NetGalley in exchange for an honest review.
