I read this book for an Around the World challenge. In this book, Barbara Holloway is helping a woman named Binnie because Immigration is seeking to deport her back to Haiti, which would be a death sentence for her. Binnie's mother was from Belize but settled in Haiti. Binnie, who is mute, met her husband when she snuck aboard his boat while it was docked in Haiti and smuggled herself into the U. S. With only days to find the truth and protect Binnie, Holloway sets off for Belize. Binnie's only hope is to prove her and her mother's real identity.
I found this book to be interesting and intriguing and also a different adventure for Barbara Holloway. I enjoyed learning about Belize which is on the east coast of Central America and is bordered on the north by Mexico, on the south and west by Guatemala and to the east by the Caribbean Sea.
The book was well-written and I found the howler monkeys to be quite entertaining. I was happy to see that everything worked out well for Binnie in regards to her immigration and the book had a very happy ending. I look forward to reading more of the Barbara Holloway novels and I would recommend this book to anyone looking to visit Belize.
