About this audiobook
David Hewson
Former Sunday Times journalist David Hewson is well known for his crime-thriller fiction set in European cities. He is the author of the highly acclaimed The Killing novels set in Denmark, the Detective Nic Costa series set in Italy and the Pieter Vos series in Amsterdam. The Killing trilogy is based on the BAFTA award-winning Danish TV series created by Søren Sveistrup and produced by DR, the Danish Broadcasting Corporation. While he lives in Kent, Hewson's ability to capture the sense of place and atmosphere in his fiction comes from spending considerable research time in the cities in which the books are set: Copenhagen, Rome, Venice and Amsterdam.

- Rating: 3 out of 5 stars3/5David hewson is one of my favourite thriller writers and, although this one disappointed me a little, it was still worth reading. He paints a convincing picture of Seville during Holy Week, a visit I have always wanted to make but after this I am having doubts.
The characters of the police officers and the criminology professor are generally interesting and well drawn, as were several of the other key figures. I felt thta there was an unnecessary level of gruesomeness about some of the details of the muders, but perhaps this went with the claustrophobia of the Holy Week celebrations, the oppresiveness of the legacy of the Civil War and of course, the corrida itself which is central to the book.
My final comment is that the book is a bot too long.
