A bit of a slow starter for me -- initially I didn't like any of the characters (except Mrs. Ali), including the Major. After about 40 pages the Major began to behave and sound like a retired British Army Major (he finally showed some backbone) and some, but not all, of the other characters began to soften and become likeable. From that point on I had a hard time putting the book down. The characters and story continued developing throughout the rest of the book and there were some very good surprises. Loved the ending!
