So nice to read a book with a coherent narrative plot, after struggling with Joyce.
Have read this before, it is the one where River goes to France to track down the attempted killer of this grandfather, and ends up meeting his father who throws him into the Thames. Also in which JJ Coe shoots the baddie already chained to a radiator.
The underlying plot theme involving a plot to infiltrate agents into the west is a bit far fetched and incoherent; this is often a weakness in Herron’s books, but he does the characters and plot details so well, that this can be forgiven.
