i wasnt sure whether i could get into this book. im still not quite sure whether im ready to read books based around or for the covid topics and era. so far i think authors have navigated it well. actually ive preferred those who simply avoid adding it to the timelines of their plots.
i dont think with the varying views and differing circumstances for everyone at the time that you can ever "win" for all people. noone came out or went through the period the same.
this book wasnt for me sadly. maybe for all the reasons of the above. but that is really unfair and i feel bad for seeming to write such a bad review. which im really not. as the plot and the writing was really well done. it just felt to raw for me. so maybe it might do for others.
and i dont want to think of worse happening because of or linked to that time. it seems to fuel more of the crass side of peoples characters that have made themselves loud since then.
but i think for people who arent as sensitive as i clearly am it would make a great thriller. and actually was really interesting to read the authors take on this.

A spy thriller set in a post COVID world. Action packed and fast paced, the multiple characters and viewpoints got confusing. This was not my type of novel, but the strong writing and narrative will appeal to other teaders.
