Frantic to escape the wreckage, she hops a plane to Amsterdam. Tulips, wooden shoes ...it sounds restful.Not exactly. Amsterdam is packed with visitors, some noisily celebrating the new queens coronation, and some all-too-quietly plotting a response to Iran. Claire couldnt find Iran on a map, but a reckless one-night stand with a reporter lands her in the thick of the intrigue, where even tulips can pack a threat. Shes already learned she cannot trust her husband, and now, it seems, shes stumbled into a world where everybodys loyalty is up for grabs. Stunningly good . . .This novel is big. Its complicated. Its witty, its violent, and it will give readers a first-rate run for their money Los Angeles Herald Beautifully conveys the feel of that classic situation, the ordinary person in extraordinary circumstances Washington Post A first-class thriller that ranks right up there with the works of Ken Follett and Helen MacInness San Diego Union |
