Customer Reviews

A decent thriller, a keen socio-political perspective

The plot was definitely suspenseful and kept the pages turning, though in the end there weren't a lot of surprises -- but the snapshot of a possible post-Troubles future was deftly written. Even someone with little or no understanding of the Troubles or Northern Ireland should easily follow the politics and subsequently the setting Baker creates. I wasn't surprised by the turns the storyline took, though I certainly enjoyed Baker's writing ability and will look for other books by him. All in all, a worthy debut.

Suspense and The Troubles

A fascinating book from beginning to end. Explores both The Troubles and issues that come up when you lose a parent as an adult. Suspenseful and surprising--it will keep you guessing until the end.
