Reilly describes the book as "the nicest detective in the world […] uncovers the most heinous conspiracy imaginable" which sounds about right. For pulp this is great; fast-paced and real spooky. But there's flaws for sures, and in the end it really is just a white saviour trope. I can understand this won't be for everyone, but I thought it was pretty good for what it is.
