10 reasons to visit Sardinia

• Book: Blindsided
• Location: Sardinia (Sardegna)
• Author: Julian Edge

Review Author: Bookish

The first-person narrator is an historian who, with his wife, visits Sardinia so he can work on a book about the pre-historic Nuragic culture and Megalithic structures and they can work on their marriage. A chance encounter at the airport leads to challenges to their relationship and involvement in a situation of increasing danger. This is a fast-paced thriller with introspective reflections on relations between the sexes and the possibility or otherwise of a rational system of ethics: Camus meets John Le Carre. By the rattling denouement this reader was well and truly blindsided. The novel had also well and truly whetted his appetite for a visit to Sardinia.
