About this listen
Layers of Deception is a fast-paced international crime thriller filled with twists, turns, and intrigue exposing conflicts between brothers, religion, gender, love, risk, and greed. Set in Malaysia and the UK, software business entrepreneur Steve Roussos struggles to safeguard his colleagues and family when evidence comes to light that exposes criminal activities on the dark net. The thriller draws on the author’s many years experience of doing business in Asia.

The story itself is gripping and has lots of details about the settings in Malaysia which help bring the place to life, equally enjoyable for those who have knowledge of the area and for those who, like me, have never travelled. The pace is good and doesn’t slow down from the start, keeping the interest and excitement going right through. It is a very believable tale about the intrigue and deceptions in big business and constantly had me wondering what would happen next, what depths the bad guys would stoop to.
The book is very much reliant on dialogue which helps keep the pace going however some of that dialogue can be a little stilted in places and doesn’t always seem natural or believable. In several places a character goes from frantic to calm or from grieving to excited about business prospects in the next sentence. Also, at least in the audiobook version so presumably in the written version too, there appears to be a lack of descriptors for the character’s speech, often making the dialogue seem more flat and emotionless. A little more of how they are saying the words would bring it to life better.
Overall a very enjoyable book. All the issues get resolved one way or another but with an opening for a follow up book in the future.
I received a complimentary copy of this audiobook from the author and am voluntarily providing an honest review.
