When the body of a young British woman is discovered in a mass grave in a Croatian village, her mother hires former MI5 private investigator Bill Penn to find out what led to her daughter's death. Through his investigation, Penn learns that the young woman was a victim of a war crime. The book was fairly interesting up to that point. Everything past that point was unbelievably stupid. Penn put himself in danger of his own making. There was nothing urgent about the situation. Penn wasn't racing against the clock to prevent something terrible from happening. The crime had already been committed. There wasn't a single likeable character in the book, except perhaps the headmaster of the school in the Serbian village. I'm sure there are better books, probably non-fiction, about the war in Croatia, the plight of the refugees, and war crimes and criminals. ( ) keine Rezensionen | Rezension hinzufügen
A mass grave is uncovered in a devastated Croatian village, and the mutilated body of a young Englishwoman, Dorrie Mowat, is exhumed. Her mother, who detested Dorrie when she was alive, is determined to find out how her daughter died. But with civil war tearing apart the former Yugoslavia, none of the authorities are interested in what they view as a minor war crime. She employs private investigator, Bill Penn, a former MI5 officer, who anticipated a short trip to Zagreb where he will compile a meaningless report and receive a good fee at the end of it. But once he has seen the killing ground, Penn becomes determined to find the truth behind the young woman's death. As Penn searches for evidence of war crimes, he finds himself pitted against a ruthless opponent who will stop at nothing to cover his tracks... Keine Bibliotheksbeschreibungen gefunden. |
