I was disappointed with the author's The Last Kashmiri Rose, the first work in a series different from the one to which this book belongs. I thought this one a better read but with the same weaknesses. Again, though not to the same degree, I thought the characters shallow and the dialog stilted, artificial. The plot was decent and the references to classical mythology and Minoan culture interesting.

Barbara Cleverly has begun another adventure, this time with Laetitia Talbot who wants to "rock" the archaeology world and does a good job. Very good read.
