" I liked this book but was confused with how it fit in with the other Barbara Holloway books I read in the past. This book is obviously an early story even though it was published in 2011. Once you figure this out the story is a good one. "

" A trip to Belize to help a mute women immigrated illegally but born to an American father gets Barbara Holloway out of her funk. An early book. "

" Probably three and a half stars is more like it. My first Kate Wilhelm book and I may well read another. This was a good quick read. I liked the character of Barbara and her concern despite herself for Martin and Binnie. It's interesting the way she dashes off arrow prayers and she throws herself into danger for others. As one who adores orchids, the desciption of the orchids really appealed to me and the descriptions of Belize which meant nothing to me before this book.I admit I am always a sucker for books and TV shows about the law and llaywyers.

" Another excellent, defense attorney Barbara Holloway book. This is one of my favorite lawyer series and this installment did not disappoint. Although this one wasn't very "lawyery" (no court room scenes, etc) it was an action packed thriller for sure. "

" Another great Barbara Holloway novel. Has just enough drama to keep the story going while Barbara is still her elegant flamboyant lawyer self. "

" I enjoyed this book, but it was not my favorite of Whilhem's Barbara Holloway novels. It took some time to get into the plot and I didn't like that it was set more in the past than other more recent Barbara Holloway novels. "

" I was a little dismayed at first because this is a prequel--it fits in chronologically between book 1 and book 2. However, it was still the suspenseful, complex, and well-written Holloway that I've come to love. "

" Kate Wilhelm writes some of the best in the mystery genre. "

" The writing is pedestrian, but the setting--Belize--piqued my interest enough to finish this. "

" One of the characters in this book is named Dennis Linfield. This is funny because Linfield is the college I attended in McMinnville which is not a really long distance from Eugene. "

" Too short but I really like all of the Barbara Holloway books! Dithered between 3 and 4 stars. T'was hard to decide. So REALLY HIGH three...just 'cause it could have been more....(IMHO) :-) "

" Good; Continuing character: Barbara Holloway; when a former NFL football player and his mute wife show up at her office, Holloway has no idea it will turn into a battle with immigration, drug lords, and secret government operatives "

" Kate Wilhelm is new to me, and reminiscent of Sue Grafton, whom I much enjoy. Well crafted whodunnit with engaging characters. This is the 12th in the series, and I will look for others. "
