Does anyone here have the paperback or electronic version of Ben Aaranovitch's The October Man? ![[personal profile]](https://www.dreamwidth.org/img/silk/identity/user.png)
myrialux and I just finished listening to the audio version, and there was one needle-scratch that we're curious about.
The book is set in Germany, but a tattoo shop is described as being across from an African-American hair salon. Er? A case of a copyeditor losing control? Inappropriate localization? Or something else? There's a black character in it who is only described as being black, so it makes that one instance stand out even more.
