A review by nigellicus
Ah, Treachery! by Ross Thomas

5.0

(Annoyingly, not the edition I own, and I have neither the time nor the inclination to add it.)

The last book by Thomas before his death, and he's better than ever with betrayed soldiers and spies and Generals and political fund-raisers and murders and missing millions all wound up in a complex, intricate plot told with the usual energised cyncism.

Here's an absolutely terrific round-up of Thomas' writing career: http://dothemath.typepad.com/dtm/ah-treachery.html
