A strong story of the warmth of love and the coldness of evil. A haunting tale that is difficult to forget. Bittersweet. Highly Recommended.

Reader review

I've been a fan of this series since the early novels and it's always improved with each new book. DEATH OF A DIPLOMAT is a complex investigation, combining the complications of dealing with diplomatic restrictions and relationships between countries, but always pulling everything back to the lowest common denominator. What people do when they believe they have no choice.

From the first page to the last, I was glued to every page! A brilliant storyline, really enjoyed all the characters. Reading the first page made me feel that I had come home. So loved the ending, (it) couldn't have finished any better!
