A private detective is hired by a mysterious woman to find a man....
The quarry? An obscure author of pulp fiction novels featuring one Osama Bin Laden: vigilante. Our detective pursues his quarry from the backwaters of Asia to the Capitals of Europe, the New World and into a realm of shadows. Here he finds the refugees, ghostly entities haunting reality. Where do they come from? And what do they want?

The story is fun in its classic nods to detective novels, but also eerie in the dry way in which small vignettes describe in clinical detail some of the atrocities that were committed.
I particularly enjoyed the way in which the novel played about with memory, trauma and liminal spaces.
The narrator Harding, as per usual, did a bang up job. I'd happily recommend this audiobook :)
Eerie, compelling and well paced
