As I watched Ona walk toward the dining room door, I couldn't help thinking that I wouldn't be surprised at all if somebody had tried to kill her. In fact, I was surprised it had taken so long.
This is what you get when Sam Spade, Indiana Jones, and Daniel Craig get mixed. A witty, irreverent celebrity detective (Who's over the celebrity part) who ends up saving the world on accident.
The writing was punchy, funny and with good world-building. I believed there was stuff going on in the world before and after I closed the book.
The mystery was fair (as in you could solve it if you wanted to and paid attention) and pretty well written with some twists and turns and red herrings.
The characters may be the weak point, but it's a pulp novel, and they were interesting, had a bit of depth, and kept the plot moving.
I enjoyed it and would read the next book in the series.… (mais)

Frothy. Liked it enough to consider going back to read the first two.

A nice mix of science fiction and mystery.
