I received a complimentary copy of this book in order toreview it.  I look forward to reading more from this author.This book follows a nerdy Professor Hobson and exotic Catarina as they try to thwart a plot to murder/overthrow Catarina's father, president of a small Central American country.  In addition to the adventure aspects, which are reminiscent of "Romancing the Stone", there are also a lot of laugh out loud comedic moments.  Some of the characters are larger than life, which causes them to literally be taken along for the ride.  I can't remember the last time I just thoroughly enjoyed such a casual read.  It is an easy enough read that you can read for a while and put it down and come back to it later without having to backtrack to remember what's going on.  But it has enough action and plot twists to keep you guessing and coming back.  I remember thinking as I was reading, "This is fun"!  So, give it a try!  I can't wait for the next book from this author.
