Yes, I think it's clear to anyone reading Barbara Silkstone's reviews that I'm a devoted fan. I asserted that Barbara out-did herself with Wendy and the Lost Boys...it was a real page turning, laugh a minute thrill. But little did I suspect she had a sequel lurking in that comic brain of hers. London Broil is just as funny and fast-paced as Wendy, and I was excited to find two of my favorite characters, Roger Jolley and Treanna popping back up again (and Wendy Darlin, of course). What I didn't bank on is the serious turn the book takes at one point - so relate-able and poignant that I actually had tears in my eyes. With just a hint of spicy sexiness, London Broil is a masterful ride through a London heat wave, with bad guys galore and a plot that keeps you guessing - and, as does every fine author, she leaves nary a loose end untied. Very satisfying. Lots and lots of fun!
