The booktrail

This secondary thread of Bannerman’s connection with Tania, and her characterisation, is very well done. We take mobile phones and the internet so much for granted, it’s an interesting reminder of how things were accomplished back in the day. Much less was known about autism and the treatments available weren’t particularly helpful at the time of this story.

It takes place in the corridors of the EU institutions. Also travelling to Belgium is Kale, a hired assassin and a man hardened by his experiences to the extent he has no feelings of guilt or remorse about what he is being paid to do.

It’s obvious the condition has been well researched. There’s not many novels set in and around the EU part of Brussels and whilst the city does get to show off its other tourist sites, it’s the focus of the EU what really shines.

The mix of the journalists and the diplomats was well done. At a time where Europe is in the news more than ever, this is a very timely novel. A jaded journalist is called to Brussels to investigate murder. The powers that be claim they shot each other but Bannerman has serious doubts, based on Inspector du Maurier’s considerations and a drawing by Tania, showing a man with no face where the murder took place.

What DOES go on in the corridors of power? The journalists often rule the roost in these circles so it was good to see the difficult relations play out. Peter May has painted an atmospheric picture with well defined characters and a dark thread running through the narrative.
