The Burning Air (Hardcover)

Customer Review

I love psychologically sophisticated thriller that might cause pity you and mithoffen - be it with the perpetrators or the victims. Especially Thriller must make you feel "so it could actually happen."
Especially the British are in this area very often a leader - whether in books or movies.
That's why I went with much anticipation to connect with "Burning Air", which to me was the author previously unknown.
But what a disappointment! While there is the course of the novel some surprising twists and turns and the author takes the reader once pretty up the garden path, so you then confused back flips and again must lelsen some scenes (unfortunately due Spoiler alert write anything more details, see) - but the whole book is terribly boring and the characters remain so unreal and unreal like from another planet. All are unappealing - from family MacBride, the well-off upper class family with blondgelocktem elite junior to Kerry, the girlfriend of the son.
Much remains unclear, many developments of characters, for example, from abject poverty to success and wealth without any education, are simply described and remain nebulous and implausible.
One lives and suffering at any time with longs and more or less the end brought about because the entire plot simply be constructed and more holes than a Swiss cheese.
Conclusion: Linguistically at a high level (therefore even 2 star), but otherwise maintained boredom with unappealing characters operating on 300 pages. Not recommended.
