Once I was used to the way in which the narrative was constructed, I thoroughly enjoyed this story. Told from both the author’s own and the characters perspectives it really brings to life the true story of the assassination of Reinhard Heydrich, chief of the Nazi secret services. Told in mainly very short chapters the pace was quick and maintained throughout the novel, and added to the sense of reality. As they say, the truth is always stranger than fiction and this well written story proves it yet again.
