False Value

As a software engineer, Babbage and Lovelace have a special place in my heart, so i especially enjoyed this book.
There is a (annoying) style in TV shows to show a car chase, lots of shooting and then the car gets stopped and the police surround the evil driver, only for us to be surprised that it is the hero of the show.
Then the next scene starts with a text that says something like 12 hours earlier.
This book did that a couple times and I hope Mister Aaronovitch is done with that.
