First things first, this is an absolute belter of a read. It has been widely reported that vast amounts of priceless artefacts were looted in Iraq as a direct result of the US led invasion. Of course, looting artworks has form, so to speak. After all, the Nazis hoarded thousands of artworks and rumours persist that a long lost train holds many of these stolen treasures. But, back to this book. FBI agent Charlie Glass is part of a task force sent to Baghdad to help recover some of the stolen pieces. Up against it right from the start, Charlie can’t trust anyone and in a war torn country, loyalties can be bought, even if it is with looted gold.
The action scenes are spectacularly choreographed and Charlie is a joy to watch in action. One thing I particularly enjoyed was the readability of this book; the pages just turned themselves. The dialogue was spot on and there are some delicious put downs. A real thrill ride with a stand up protagonist, a storyline built around documented events and a narrative pace that doesn’t let you pause for breath. Spectacular.
