I got this book because I saw the author's appearence on The Daily Show. It's a very sad story, but the fact of the matter is that he's just not a very good writer. Read Kaffir Boy instead.

This book brings back General Balantyne, one of my favorite supporting characters, and puts him into a more central role. The plot is good, and there are fair clues throughout the book. For me, the characters are of as much interest as the plot, and this book brings out the warmth and compassion in Thomas and Charlotte in a new way. I enjoyed getting lost in this story set in Victorian England, even as I see that some of the issues they faced are still with us today. That gives me comfort somehow.
