A neat if not strikingly original thriller taken from the Robert Harris novel, finds leftfield historian Fluke Kelso on the trail of a story told to him by a now murdered Russian spy, which could reveal one of the greatest mysteries of the old Soviet Republic. Unfortunately Fluke's need to know is surpassed by the need of others to keep this particular secret, well.....secret, and as he homes in on a remote northern Port called Archangel it would seem the fallen angel has indeed come to collect him. An entertaining thriller in the vein of a post Communist Le Carre.
