What a good book. To be honest, though, there were times when I thought I would have to stop reading it because I was so disgusted by the prejudices, pettiness, and arrogance of Major Pettigrew's so-called friends (and Major Pettigrew himself, truth be told). But my feelings were more a measure of the author's solid writing than a reason to stop reading and, of course, I could not put it down. Simonson takes on several social issues, throws in a "mature" romance and some thrills, and ties it all up very satisfactorily in the end. A very enjoyable read.
