I absolutely loved "Finding Nouf", so I hoped that Zoe Ferraris' sophomore effort would be just as good. Fans and first time readers of her newest book will not be disappointed. It's even better, in my opinion, than her first book. Ms. Ferraris writes extremely well and it was wonderful to revisit with her appealing, engaging and well drawn characters and the beautiful setting of Saudi Arabia. The story has plenty of twists and turns, and fans will be rooting for Nayir and Katya. Very highly recommended.

I had a little trouble getting into this story at first, but once I got my bearings, I was again engrossed by the world that Ferraris explores. Nothing here is quite what it seems--a seemingly straightforward mystery becomes complicated and sinister; Saudi society both grounds and constrains the people who live in it. And the people are carefully drawn. They don't just act and react, they think, and make the reader think, too. A good book, and a series I'm looking forward to reading more of.
