Yet he does, unwittingly setting in motion a course that will lead him into a personal nightmare and the toughest choice of his life...

Review:
Remarkably assured, raw-boned, a tour de force * New York Times * Well constructed, fast-paced, Jardine's narrative has many an ingenious twist and turn * Observer * Very engaging as well as ingenious, and the unraveling of the mystery is excellently done -- Scotsman * Allan Massie *
