" I thought this was the weakest chapter in the series so far. Although Mrs. Pollifax remains indomitable, I found the rest of the characters a bit murky this time. It was hard to understand motivations (excepting Mrs. Pollifax's relentless search for Cyrus), and I was disappointed in the summation at the end. Still, the writing is solid and the adventure keeps you reading. "
