Thriller
A page-turning contemporary thriller on an epic scale by
the British author R.J. Hopkins, In The Thick Of It is an
intoxicating concoction of cinematic action-packed drama
framed within a beguiling examination of sexual identity
and ambiguity. It is set in a modern world plagued by
insurgency and terrorism, over 4 ½ years between 2008 and
2012, and is a roller-coaster ride full of shocks and
surprises with the action taking place in real locations
in New York City, Venice and Rome, and London and Cornwall
in the UK. Not for the faint-hearted! With a number of set pieces full of high drama, notably
including a multiple car chase by the shore near Coney
Island in New York, a violent gun battle after a memorial
service in a Russian Orthodox church on the streets of
Manhattan, a gripping torture scene in the crypt of a
church in Venice, an attempted rape in a hotel room in
Newquay in the UK and a dramatic night-time chase on
nearby Towan beach, the action never lets up, culminating
in a final `surprise twist' ending. With the author's
insight into complex and intriguing characters, In The
Thick Of It should be on everyone's 'must read' list.
