This book amazed me. It was a great mystery but I loved that since it took place in Morocco the culture was a good part of it and I found it very interesting. My only complaint is that I despised Paul so much from the beginning that I found even the small sex scenes cringey, however I won't let that hinder my rating. Normally,
SpoilerI don't like books that don't close the ending, but in this case I think it was appropriate. It went well with Paul's mysterious personality and I think finding out what happened to him wouldn't have made the ending as good. I liked that it focused more on Robin.
