I’ve always been a big fan of thrillers, especially the ones where exotic locations offer a backdrop to the main story. I first picked up a pen and paper to start scribbling notes for my first novel while travelling in SE Asia. The sometimes eccentric characters I met, the heady, vibrant, and chaotic nature of budget travel, and some of the situations I found myself in all fueled my creativity. Somehow, I needed to get these experiences and thoughts down on paper. So, the elements of multiple international locations, exotic and not-so-glamorous, have inspired my writing over the last decade.
This is a beast of a thriller at 700 pages, but I thoroughly enjoyed the deep dive nevertheless. American ex-spy Pilgrim is pitched against a Saudi mujahideen fighter known as the Saracen, who is bent on avenging himself against the United States with a chillingly devastating plan.
Both protagonist and antagonist are well fleshed out with detailed backstories that make the character development top-notch in this murder mystery-turned-spy terrorism thriller. There's an interesting switch between first and third person, which I've rarely encountered.
I found it quite engrossing, and many scenes linger long after I put the book down. It's a solid thriller that I could really get my teeth into.

The storyline is snatched from everyday headlines.This book is a complex, layered, page-turner with compelling charcters - flaws and all - and a plot that pokes at our concepts of justice, the nature of evil, obsession, and criminality. The kind of thought-provoking story I enjoy most. It started as a slow burn but then intrigued and disturbed me as I read. I was hooked. It starts in London then moves to postwar Sarajevo, a place I knew little about. The explosive ending doesn't disappoint.
