The romance and politics keep suspense ratcheted up. . . . Intriguing--readers will be on tenterhooks for the next one."--Kirkus Reviews "A suspenseful page-turner with a highly sympathetic and strong female protagonist. A perverse sense of claustrophobic dread grows throughout the novel. . . . Will have readers waiting eagerly for a sequel."--Booklist
