In Eric Ambler’s novel, Latimer gets a real taste of what makes up the mind of a criminal.I think one of the most engaging angles of this novel is simply the notion of the everyman in Latimer seemingly “in over his head” as he progresses throughout the novel. Latimer is introduced to a glimpse of the life of a notoriously infamous criminal named Dimitrios by a stroke of circumstance when a body washes ashore in Istanbul. His fascination piqued, Latimer goes to great lengths to seeks out and formulate a timeline for the criminal’s career, including some of his most notorious deeds. To do this, Latimer not only does some research on the side through court documents and newspaper archives, but even digs deeper by encountering some of those who knew the criminal in some capacity. But, at what point is Latimer crossing the line and threshold into Dimitrios’ life and past at his own peril? An obsession of sorts consumes and takes hold of Latimer, and he feverishly pursues his quest for knowledge of this man.I thought this was an amazingly effective thriller and spy type novel. It has all the make up and elements that engage the reader throughout: assassination attempts, espionage and spy tricks, duplicity and deception, treachery, and murder. Ambler puts us right into Latimer’s shoes and we experience the events upfront as an innocent bystander. The pacing of the novel is quite epic as it builds with a momentum of tension layer by layer as we move along through each chapter. In this way, I think Ambler plots this novel so succinctly and effectively to reach the utmost intrigue as we become embroiled in the mystery along with its main character. And the final chapters are as intense as I have read and had me on the edge of my seat as I plowed through to see how things concluded.In short, there is a definite expert level of storytelling here from Ambler, with twists, shocking revelations, and mystery at every corner. A very fascinating read, and I look forward to more works from this author. ### ⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐ Devolución correcta *by T***8 on Reviewed in Spain on 21 December 2023* La devolución se hizo correctamente.
