The Spy With Eczema
Amazon.com
My review -
Barry
is a spy. His life is lonely, boring and pretty chaotic. He becomes involved
with Don, who accidentally retrieves a data stick with top secret information
on it. Don, ostensibly on sick because of a bad back, fancies his chances with
Nicole, a French girl working in an English second-hand book shop. Mix in an
offshoot of the Freemasons and things get complicated.
I
enjoyed this story with its off the wall ideas and strange, and occasionally
strangely likeable, characters. There was plenty going on, lots of people to
whom it all happened and the denouement, although the story felt complete,
promised more. I don’t always want something earth-shatteringly deep. If you
want a bit of good entertainment, this is the book for you. I enjoyed it very
much.
