Shadows

by Kenneth Royce

When a philandering MP is shot dead while awaiting an assignation with a call girl, no one is surprised to learn that a woman did it. But Scotland Yard believes that the shooting was too expert to suggest a crime of passion. Despite the full weight of an official police inquiry, ex-Scotland Yard Detective Superintendent George Bulman is asked by the Home Secretary s office to find out what he can about an apparent hidden agenda surrounding the incident. But the truth is difficult to find and the assassin is poised to strike again . . . and she has gained Bulman's friendship.

Reviews

[Iancu Mariella · Rating 5 out of 5]

Un roman plin de intrigi, suspans si răsturnări de situații. Te ține inevitabil cu sufletul la gură, întrebându-te constant cum se va termina toată povestea.
Cu toate astea, finalul mi se pare lăsat în coadă de pește și aș spune un pic nerealist, având in vedere că vorbim de mafia rusească.
