The diversion was shortlived. Quickly after commencing the novel, it became apparent that this was something other that those genres, indeed a different author. Whilst Karyn, in her review, though it was a slow start , I thought it was merely a build up , which I do not mind ( so long so it reaches a conclusion,. which this novel does).
The major character is an internal auditor, though he displays at times characteristics closer to those of James Bond ( but not completely absurd so as to detract from the story). I wonder if my acceptance of that position is mollified by the last 2 pages of the book?
The divergence to the other Clark Smith was not a complete waste of time, as I learned that he and my favorite photographer of all time, Ansel Adams, shared a benefactor in Albert M Bender. It took me to re look at some of Adams' photographs , which I find spectacular.
In the end whilst this will not be viewed as "must read", I think my view is best understood by understanding that I am looking forward to reading the other 2 fictions books he wrote ( both with the same main player ( Mahoun) ) though I will pass on the textbook he apparently wrote as to Internal Auditing.
