Customer Reviews

Thoroughly enjoyable

This is the first book I've read by Sara Mitchell; I saw it at the library and checked it out because it looked intriguing. I'm so glad I did! The relationship between Adam and Rosalind was wonderfully portrayed, in spite of the fact that they were complete opposites. I even found the subplot of Cat easy to to believe. If you're looking for a good romantic suspense novel, this is a must read!

Sara Mitchell's best book so far!

For me, this is Sara Mitchell's best book to date. The plot is fascinating, with lots of surprises. But most of all, the characters just step right off the pages. Adam is a great hero, but not perfect (besides, how can you resist a man who keeps a cougar for a pet?), and he and Rosalind make a great team. They're romantic, smart, and even funny together. I've read all the Pinkerton books so far and enjoyed them all, but this one is the best. Can't wait to see what she does next.

A pleasant, fast-paced read...true to Mitchell's style.

The story of how Rosalind Hayes' missing brother dovetails with the notorious Catbird jewel thief and Adam Moreaux, the Pinkerton operative trying to track him down is nicely done, in the style and with the detail I've come to expect from Sara Mitchell. At first, the storylines seem quite divergent, but she brings them together plausibly, all the while allowing a budding romance to bloom slowly, with time and faith. The added intrigue regarding Rosalind's fascination with the notorious jewel thief seems almost gratuitous, though it does serve a purpose in the end for the patient reader. Small details about the countryside, the secondary characters, and the brief political/societal notes flesh out the story, which flicks quickly between various points of views and locales. A nice job and a worthwhile, edifying way to spend a few hours!
