Travel BookTrail style from Northumberland to London and beyond with Dan Taylor
This is a novel of high stakes games being played in tense and far away locations – and the key to everything appears to buried deep at the heart of the British government.
The London and government ‘scenes’ are particularly apt and relevant since for most of this novel there are serious tensions about the UK’s involvement in the European Union. There’s lots of things going on underground – both regarding the secrets and underground in the sense that there are so many tunnels from one government site to another in the capital!
It’s up in Northumberland that the novel really tamps up the tension when something is stolen from a fracking site. There’s a problem with fracking in many rural areas so this too gives an insight into local and rural issues linked to central government plans.
There are also links to Eastern Europe although this is vague – threatening however! And in the background the fear and tensions of the EU.
