Rules of Betrayal by Christopher Reich
My rating: 4 of 5 stars
‘Rules of Betrayal’ is the most complex in story layers I’ve read in the espionage genre. Reich does an excellent job in plotting the various aspects and angles of the story. All to later converge in one way or another to a very satisfying end. Unlike many espionage books that, to me, end too quickly, this novel wraps up most of hte plot lines and gives site to the future of all of the characters.
A serious drawback is the most convenient arrival of certain characters in the nick of time. Seems a neat plot device,but also seems unbelievable.
Bottom line: I recommend this book.
