Review title: Fooled Again
Product review: I have real hot/cold feelings about Silva's work, either really enjoying ("Unlikely Spy", "Kill Artist") or hating ("The Marching Season", "Mark of the Assassin") each of his books. But I really believed in the potential of the new cast of characters introduced in "The Kill Artist", which was a very enjoyable quick read.Unfortunately, the author was unable to keep momentum with this by-the-numbers sequel, where this interesting cast is forced to sleepwalk through the same old throwaway spy novel plot conventions. The entire book feels forced, either by the publisher's desire to pump out a quick follow-up or by the author's zeal to expose what an awful world neighbor Switzerland really is.Whatever the motivation, I found myself sleepwalking through to the end of this one as quickly as possible.
