The novel spans thirty years, moving deftly from New York and London to Oslo, Athens, and the south of France. It depicts delightful dinner parties, country house weekends, and conflicting loyalties. Things come to a head when Robert Fletcher, Charles’s son, comes to London to begin his own career—and uses George to further his ambition. Told in the form of a narration by the title character at the end of his career, George Evans takes us into a world reminiscent of the novels of Graham Greene and Evelyn Waugh. The dialogue is fast-paced and the scenes often humorous, but there is a more menacing undertone, suggesting betrayal as the currency of the modern age.
