The author has clearly researched his background well, and the political context seems entirely plausible (to me, anyway!). However, the context is less important that the principal plot, in which Raven excels. Fielding Gray, an eminently empathetic character, is tested both physically and morally at different stages of the story, and the reader feels for him. Meanwhile Marquis Canteloupe and Somerset Lloyd James are plotting in their inimitable way, deterined to ensure that Fielding's investigations go awry.
Unlike the rest of the sequence this novel would probably not stand up on its own, but within the context of the series it works very well. ( )
