Review

Inspector Green is coping with an office job, still eager to get back into the day-to-day fray of policing. His chance comes when an unidentified woman is drowned in the Ottawa River. In her possession is a Medal for Bravery from a peacekeeping mission. As Green and his team dig deeper into the military past, Green finds himself sucked not only into the murky past of a peacekeeping unit but into the high-stakes present of a federal election race. What crime was committed in Yugoslavia more than a decade ago? Is someone still killing to prevent that secret from coming to light? And does the diary of a dead soldier hold the key?

Barbara Fradkin's mysteries are a must for expat Canadians. The settings in Ottawa and Ontario add a great deal. Her books however do stand on their own for fascinating stories and an appealing detective.

4.0 out of 5 stars Honour Among Men is a smorgasbord of mystery, appealing characters and twists and turns!
Reviewed in the United States on September 17, 2008
Honour Among Men brings back Fradkin's interesting protagonist, Inspector Green. This time he's called to a case involving the death of a mysterious woman whose body was dumped on the shore of the Ottawa River. The first order of business? To uncover the woman's identity. The second? To find out why she had a military medal for bravery in her hand.

This fascinating novel takes you from Ontario, Canada, to Croatia via a soldier's missing diary, and it gives you a look into the hearts and souls of soldiers and the atrocities they face every day when they're at war. It also exposes the raw inhumanity of war and how people are forced to make choices 'over there', ones they have to live with afterwards...if they can.

Honour Among Men shows us that politics are often cloaked by past misdeads. Everyone has a past. Some don't want theirs in the limelight, and they'll do anything to keep their secrets. If you enjoy a great mystery novel with vivid scenes, realistic dialogue and a well researched plot, check out Honour Among Men.

Recommended for: Those who like a traditional 'whodunnit mystery' set in contemporary times.

3.0 out of 5 stars Less interesting that others in the series
Reviewed in the United States on March 10, 2015

I found this entry in the life of Inspector Green less interesting than the others. I think that is because this one involves the inner workings of the military, a topic which does not interest me at all. Yes, there is some overlap between members of the police and members of the military. Yes, the upper echelons of both are quite political. Yes, there is action and betrayal and suspicious death, but this book is just not as enjoyable as others in the series.

Good story, brings you along on an interesting journey but the end is odd. Not sure if they found the mastermind behind the murders or not.
