"I'm not usually into thrillers, but my husband loved this book so much that I had to read it. It didn't disappoint. Ambler is considered one of the granddaddies of spy novelists. This one was published in the late 1930s, and taught me that though many subsequent spy novels and thrillers were set in World War II, there was plenty of intrigue to go around before that conflict erupted. The story is of Latimer, a British detective novelist. When a Turkish secret policeman who is fan of his books shows Latimer the corpse of a criminal named Dimetrios, Latimer's curiosity is piqued and he begins to trace Dimetrios' trail around Europe. As you can imagine, his search attracts the attention of some of Dimetrios' less-than-savory former colleagues--and noir-ish adventures ensue. Fun and fast read, great dialogue and atmosphere, creepy characters."

"In some ways this book reminds me of a gangster film that I cannot remember the title of - it is @The Usual Suspects'. It was about unveiling the master criminal, Baron Sozay. The criminal mastermind is Dimitrios and Latimer is finding out about him. However, Mr Peters doesn't want him finding out about Dimitrios (I think).

It was a very entertaining read (written just before WW" I think). The story was very much a cliff hanger type - ending the chapters on an exciting point - with a few authorial comments on the nature of evil and human nature.

A very good read and not at all dated."
