Smoke and Whispers by Mick Herron

dark mysterious tense medium-paced
  • Plot- or character-driven? A mix
  • Strong character development? No
  • Loveable characters? No
  • Diverse cast of characters? Yes
  • Flaws of characters a main focus? No

3.5

The location (I live there) is actually the main character, the plot is more than a little far fetched, and the main characyter in what she does is hardly credible.  Not sure how many readrs would like it if they could not actually know the locations and have walked the streets regularly.
