Eric Ambler is often said to have invented the modern suspense novel. Beginning in 1936, he wrote a series of novels that introduced ordinary protagonists thrust into political intrigues they were ill prepared to deal with. These novels were touted for their realism, and Ambler established himself as a thriller writer of depth and originality. In the process he paved the way for such writers as John Le Carre, Len Deighton, and Robert Ludlum. He was awarded four Gold Daggers and a Diamond Dagger from The Crime Writers Association, named a Grand Master by the Mystery Writers Association, and was made an Officer of the Order of the British Empire by Queen Elizabeth. In addition to his novels, Ambler wrote a number of screenplays, including A Night to Remember and The Cruel Sea, which won him an Academy Award nomination.

3.0 out of 5 stars Braucht ein bisschen, bis es Fahrt aufnimmt

Der Plot in Kürze: Die Côte d'Azur, ein kleines Hotel mit unterschiedlichen Gästen, eine zu Unrecht als Spion bezichtigte Hauptfigur, die den echten Spion entlarven muss, um sich selbst vor dem Gefängnis zu retten.

War mein erstes Buch von Eric Ambler. Die erste Hälfte fand ich etwas fad, die Handlung tröpfelte stellenweise vor sich hin. Dann aber nimmt es langsam Fahrt auf, als eine Person mit der Hauptfigur spricht und der Roman plötzlich um eine politische Dimension erweitert wird. Ohne zu Spoilern kann ich sagen, dass es dabei um die Situation in Deutschland vor dem 2. Weltkrieg geht. Schade, dass Ambler nicht mehr daraus gemacht hat. So bleibt es ein solider (wenn auch nicht überragender) Rätselkrimi.
