Great character development makes this a very enjoyable story, and the core mystery is complex. I don’t think most readers will figure it out until the very end. I certainly didn’t. The two audiobook readers are terrific.

Willis’ most fun book since To Say Nothing of the Dog! Starts out like a realistic adventure, but soon turns pretty wild. Lots of fun. Brilliantly read by Jesse Vilinsky.
