Whates, Ian - The Smallest Of Things
Claire witnesses a murder. Worse, she emitted a noise, alerting the killers to her presence.
Now they are in pursuit. Claire turns to friend Chris, freelance trouble shooter.
The ensuing chase skitters across London – various Londons.
Transitioning alternation realities, different timescapes.
A novelette, brief on character development and lacking atmosphere.
Busyness and the stray gizmo now and then.
Agents on the hunt are straight out of “Dark City”.
A page turner, although the conclusion is abrupt. This feels like a pitch for a series of novels.
Cover art is superb, indicating “various” London realities.
