Airport, aeroplane reading en route to Malaga. Same book as no.1, 6 years ago.
Very clever plotting, probably Hill and the Daziel novels at a mature point (there are others, I think later, that delight Hill (but not me) in their playful obscurity).
Two apparent suicides, father and son 10 or so years apart. Son’s suicide almost an exact copy of his father’s and both highly ambiguous as to suicide or murder? A seriously fucked up family & political skulduggery and shades of the US/UK funding of the contras in Nicaragua.
Chunky and pretty good novel. Should revisit more R Hill.
