My review should be out at Euro Crime in the next few weeks. It starts and ends in Gibraltar but a substantial part of it is in Tangier. There is masses of detail about the history, culture, etc of both places. It is rather a "James Bond" style thriller (what I call a bit of a boys' book!) which is interesting in view of your coach theme music.Maxine Clarkehttps://www.blogger.com/profile/06628509319992204770noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-7291823984059320518.post-63640415547370787432012-08-15T05:24:50.341+01:002012-08-15T05:24:50.341+01:00Then again, I suppose it might. ;)Then again, I suppose it might. ;)The Merryhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/09660495393832517684noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-7291823984059320518.post-70614518024773263842012-08-15T05:24:22.490+01:002012-08-15T05:24:22.490+01:00The Girl with the Dragon Tattoo (Men Who Hate Wome...The Girl with the Dragon Tattoo (Men Who Hate Women) series has scenes set in Gibraltar, but as I recall they mostly involve getting drunk.
