Review:
"M.M. Kaye outdoes Agatha Christie in palming the ace." --"San Diego Union-Tribune"

"It is good to have these...mysteries back, for they are well-constructed novels about life in colonial settings now long gone, a life Kaye knew at firsthand. The reader can feel the heat and the racial and sexual antagonisms-for they are the real thing, no pastiche." --"The Boston Globe"

"M.M. Kaye has a marvelous touch with atmosphere, place, and time." --"Houston Chronicle"
