Chris Ewan, Safe House

Chris Ewan's Safe House tells the story of a plumber/motorcycle racer who gets caught up in a much-bigger-than-he-is conspiracy. There are multiple strands to it, and it's all a bit confusing, though the ends get tied up by the end of the book. I'd have a hard time summarizing the plot, though, were there a gun to my head. Quite readable, and with an interesting setting—the Isle of Man—though I wouldn't say there is much of a sense of place in the book. Ewan, by the way, is the author of the Good Thief's Guide books, the first of which I reviewed here.
