Worth sticking with!
A spy book about Nazis, Templars, glamourous women and sleazy men, but a subtle journey that lingers long in your mind...
I found the first section of this strange book, written in a diary format quite slow. There is a lot of introducing characters and setting the scene without a lot of activity. I'm glad I kept going.
Things pick up when the action moves to first Russia and then Germany. These sections are excellent, despite some slow plotting again. When developments come they arrive quickly and with skill. This is an author who knows his craft. The narrator's charade as a Russian priest is excellently brought to life whilst the undercurrent of exploring relationships is interwoven throughout the book.
