Welcome to Litsy!

Nope. Weak in many aspects. Plot was scant, but dragged out to within an inch of its life. Certain scenes are laughably unbelievable. Dialogue is ... weird - characters reacting and responding in illogical ways. Author seems obsessed with certain odours, but these repetitive descriptions don't set the scene as well as she seems to think. There is an overwrought cheesiness that is off-putting. Ending is pants.🩲🩲🩲

But she unwittingly gets swept along with the political climate of 60s Morocco and the seedy side of its underlife.
As she courts danger at every turn Vicky is getting dragged into situations she can't control.

This is an exciting story. It‘s very visual and the descriptions are so vivid, I almost felt as if I was there on the streets and in the souks of Marrakech. The writing really brought the place to life. I was very immersed in the lives of these characters, all of whom were well drawn and realistic. The plot is gripping, it really is a page turner. It‘s a thoroughly enjoyable read! High recommended. #Pigeonhole
