- Rating: 4 out of 5 stars4/5A decent mystery that takes place during the conflict of the 1950s known as the Malayan Emergency. I particularly liked the main character, who, although didn't have a big part in the story, was a likeable fellow who was just amazed that life had brought him to this exotic place with his first responsible job and far away from his Tyneside home. The story describes the locale and setting very well, but not the background of the campaign, which has piqued my interest and necessitates more reading.
