Hello LPO
I just watched you book trailer for ‘The End of Europe’. It flowed well and the images were captivating. The title inrigued me. A few points:
1. The trailer didn’t clarify what the book might be about.
2. The opening statement which was something like ‘what would you think if you saw a colleague beheaded?’ felt a little heavy-handed for me. Maybe you wanted to hit the viewer right between the eyes? You did, but I felt that with the floaty piano track a slightly softer intro might be smoother, and build up to a bigger hit further along the line.
3. The music was great.
Just a few observations anyway.I liked it.

Hallo Mr O’Bryan,
I am about to translate your Istanbul Puzzle into Italian. Glad to find your blog — I think I am going to ask many questions onwards…. and hope to have fun, also.
Kind regards,
