The multiple subplots hold together in this series entry better than in some. The humor is, as always, superb. I've recently read a bio of Lawrence of Arabia, and clearly Peters has done a lot of research on the period for this book, as many historical characters play bit parts in this story. Many loose ends of prior series entries get tied together. And the surprise ending make clear that there will be more books to come--but not precisely what we can expect from this writer who has her characters well under control. I docked her half a star for a slow start, but once the action begins, it's fast and furious.
