Heart of Danger 
This is a fictional tragedy about a real-life tragedy: the Balkan Wars of the 1990s. The plot was absorbing, the heroines and heroes were models of true courage, and the author's warnings against the dangers of genocide will, unfortunately, always remain timely. However, I think the story set-up (which features an elderly retired intelligence agent combing through British government archives) is contrived and poorly-executed. Four stars instead of five, then.
Hard work

A touching tale of misperceptions, the cruelties of war and the inadequacies of legislation. Gripping and compelling
Finally, a Gerald Seymour book that failed to satisfy.
It was so tragic and sad. My gosh. Full review to come. 3.5
BORING AS HELL

Narration During Books Heart of Danger
Behind the lines lies unspeakable danger, the test of a lifetime. Behind the lines is a secret mass grave - the bodies of more victims of the pitiless atrocities convulsing the Balkans. But when the grave is uncovered by a dedicated American pathologist, a mystery emerges: the body of Dorrie Mowat, an outsider whose bravery in the face of death stands as a defiant symbol of human decency in a heartless world. Just who Dorrie was and what she was doing there reluctantly draws in Bill Penn, a former intelligence officer, now a private investigator. His need to redeem his own failed life, and the search for someone else's, lures him into a supreme gesture of reckless courage.Declare Regarding Books Heart of Danger
