Belfast during the Troubles. An unidentified IRA assassin in hiding. An English undercover agent on the hunt. Clearly an away game for Harry. With a fanatic homecrowd. A thriller that reads like a docudrama. Seymour keeps the game clean and to the point, thus giving it a high sense of realism. Effective storytelling that results in a very strong finish. Excellent book.
