Format:Hardcover
I have just closed the paperback edition, coming out soon, and simply wish there would be a follow-up available to read immediately ! Craig Russell is so good with this 'Jan Fabel' serie that it is simply addictive reading. Each one seems even better than the last but really, all four books are excellent. I am just very puzzled that C. Russell is not better known from a wider readership and does not seem to reach the bestselling charts, I wonder if his publisher is doing sufficient marketing.
This latest chapter takes Herr Kommissar Fabel to Cologne, or Koln, and again Russell is very good at drawing the reader into the palpable atmosphere of this city as he did with Hamburg. The characters are very credible, alive with quirks and torments, and the policemen/women no less than the criminals ! The suspense is fabulous, and keeps you going, hooked until the very end.
I just hope that we won't have to wait too long till the next episode in the life of Jan Fabel !

Craig Russell is fast becoming a favourite writer. His work is fast-paced with twisting plots, realistic characters and a real sense of Germany. He is meticulous in his writing of the detective work needed to solve a crime and his detective Jan Fabel is likeable without losing credibility. After all the American detectives Fabel comes as a breath of fresh air in the crime genre.

This was a book that delivered what it promised, with a twist! Another great book involving my favourite German policeman.

Rubbish.
Waste of time and money. A ploy like so many of these "thrilling" books which so many of us are downloading onto kindles only to find that if we were able to thumb through them... Read more

Good but sometimes irritating
I liked the main carnival story, very unusal and with a lot of twits and turns.
But the side story of Maria searching for her Ukrainian nemisis was disturbing. Read more
