Suspend Disbelief And Enjoy.

A great plot, if one can suspend disbelief, and a fine adventure story. The end was rather disappointing and one felt that the publishers said: "Re-write, our readers want a happy ending no matter how unbelievable. But, for a light story, it wasn't bad.

I could taste it

I was in the desert breathing the dust, tasting the cold sweat of fear along with the characters.

A Far Cry From Mrs. Polifax

Having Completed the Mrs. Polifax series, I searched for more from this author. Interesting, even entertaining, it just didn't measure up to Mrs. Polifax.

One of the Best

One of the best stories I’ve ever read. didn’t want it to end. Carissa is a remarkable character. Recommended highly.
