English It reminded me too much of the previous installment, Evil Under the Sun, especially in terms of plot structure, where there was still additional confusion to mislead the audience, perhaps a bit unnecessarily. Nevertheless, a story is created that is complex. And here, it's also a bit stretched. The region of Iraq, however, is sufficiently intriguing, or rather, the locations depicted are so fascinating that at least this aspect grabs you. ()
