Great!

The story is clever and interesting, with nicely fleshed characters and an intriguing mystery. Amanda Fitton, from Sweet Danger, makes a reappearance, and adds greatly to the charm of the novel. Campion's underemphasized courage and audacity feature nicely, and his success as a detective and adventurer are plain.
I need to note that modern readers will have to ignore the horrible outlook on rape, and some quite dated attitudes toward women. While not typical of all Golden Age mystery authors, these views do crop up in all artforms of that time occasionally, and have to be overlooked. The rest of the book is quite nearly a five-star read, and I certainly recommend it.
The narrator is excellent and perfectly voices Campion.
