@kevinrutherford Thanks to your review I ended up reading and very much enjoying this book (the ending was a bit "Bond villain explains the plot" for my liking, but didn't detract too much).
In return may I recommend "Finding Nouf" by Zoe Ferraris? It's the first in a trilogy of thrillers set in contemporary Saudi Arabia. Like "A Rising Man" it's a pretty unusual setting for a murder mystery and at least for me scratched a particular itch.

It's decades since I last read this book and I could only remember fragments of it. I had filed it away as one of the best books I'd ever read and on that basis I was worried that reading it all these years later would demote it from that lofty position. It is with relief I can confirm that I wasn't wrong all those years ago and I can keep it filed in its existing place as a fantastic book.
