Initially I was sceptical of attempting this one by Fields, I don't usually consider historical fiction my most favourite thing to read, but I was pleasantly surprised by this one.
What sets this apart from what I have imagined other historical thrillers to do too much of is in the details, yes we get a sense of time and place, which is crucial to ensure we know this is indeed 'historical' fiction but what Fields does particularly well is not to go all out and give us a complete history lesson...we get just enough information to appreciate the characters and their stories.
