Overall not as enjoyable as other Ambler books, that I've read. It's an interesting premise and it starts off promisingly with Colonel Haki making an appearance, disappointingly he only sets the story rolling. The rest is pretty pedestrian and for a main character who apparently has insight, the story arc forces him to make repeatedly poor choices.
As a novel, maybe it's just not aged well.
Passes a few hours whilst waiting in an airport, transferring.
But overall, it felt a bit passionless and I was left wondering if Ambler has been paid by the word.
Back to the Arthur Abdel series, I think.
