“[Susan Elia] MacNeal paints an engrossing portrait of a country on
the verge of war, with many laws suspended and prejudice rife—a
world not that much different from today.”—Kirkus Reviews
“MacNeal’s fifth Maggie Hope mystery is another solidly researched
entry with the indomitable Maggie in top form.”—Booklist
“Another winner filled both with fact and marvelous fiction . . .
Maggie is a wonderful character with the strength and
determination, as well as intelligence, to make her a resourceful
spy.”—RT Book Reviews
“MacNeal’s images and characters are true to the time, and the
resonance of several of the subplots with current events deepen the
impact of the tale; MacNeal is to be commended for her skillful
weaving of racial and gender issues into an already complex
political picture. . . . There’s a tremendous amount of world and
U.S. history in this delightful volume.”—Historical Novels

to root for. Wrought with peril and tension and extraordinarily
rich in detail and research, Hope’s latest adventure will not
disappoint fans of the series.”—Fredericksburg Free Lance–Star
