Another improbable yet exciting and very fun adventure with the unsinkable Emily Pollifax. This was super fun because I traced her travels across Türkiye with Google Maps, including some sightseeing with the photos included.

Loved the little twist at the end, although the ending did seem a little rushed. Did Gilman have a deadline pending? Oh, well, it was loads of fun. Beware: These are obviously addictive!

A cute entertaining read. Mrs. Pollifax is, yet again, over her head in trouble, stout-hearted in her bravery, aided by good characters and an interesting plot. There is cute, albeit not hugely surprising, twist at the end.
