Reviews for The Outsiders

- Rating: 4 out of 5 stars4/5Gerald Seymour has an affinity for outsiders, outcasts even. Those who get the job done although the odds are overwhelming against them. The Outsiders is an excellent book, but I’m not sure I’m totally buying into the premise. It’s the first time I can say that about one of Seymour’s many stories.The Costa Del Sol, in Spain, has been home to British expatriate criminals for years. Now the Russians are moving in. A Russian major who was responsible for killing a British MI-5 agent years ago is scheduled to meet another Russian crime figure at a villa in Mallorca. The leader of the MI-5 team, Winnie Monks, has been waiting for this moment for years. She has sworn to get revenge for her agent. An operation is put in place to get the major arrested. The Spanish government refuses to cooperate.An ineffectual British couple, young and clueless, is vacationing in the adjoining bungalow. The very bungalow where an MI-5 surveillance team chooses to camp out to get eyes on the target. The surveillance team is joined by a washed-up sniper that Winnie has befriended. When the Spanish refuse to cooperate, the surveillance operation turns into an assassination operation.I won’t give more away, but as in all of Seymour’s plots there are no easy answers, not much goes the way it should, and nobody acts in a simplistic fashion. This is a truly suspenseful book, but there was always a question in the back of my mind about a couple of the characters: Would they really do this? Even with that in mind, this is an extremely well-written suspense novel, as are all of Gerald Seymour’s books.
