When I started this I thought to myself "ah, good, finally a book that I'll be willing to put (back) into the Free Book Rack at the lab". But now having finished it I'm not sure if I'll actually be able to.
It was no more serious or significant than I'd expected it to be, but it was more fun and adventurous. Not just a simple murder mystery or mistaken-identity kidnapping, it also includes airplanes (a recent invention), zeppelins, the desert, a rich man with a sumptuous private rail car (put in just for fun really and having nothing much to do with the plot), a plucky reporter, various spies (some beautiful and deadly), a precocious little brother, flaming arrows, romance, old love affairs, and all sorts of similar stuff. Completely fluffy, but in a way that I became rather fond of toward the end.
We'll see if I manage to overcome the attachment.
