Having loved the first two books in this series, Wendy and the Lost Boys and London Broil, I couldn't wait for Silkstone to unveil the third, Cairo Caper, and I was not disappointed. First of all, the author has an amazing way of creating characters you love to love and love to hate. One of the new characters in this book that really tickied my funny bone, was Fiona Feelgood, the clueless librarian. She kept me laughing through the whole book. But I also came to feel even more affection for Wendy Darlin, and her cute guy, Roger Jolley. Even though they're officially an item now, Silkstone still manages to create plenty of sexual tension between them. Plus there are a slew of lesser characters, each so distinct, each so well drawn, that all keep you laughing. Not only that, but the author has a great way of using words, phrasesa and images in ways you've never thought of before to create an endless flow of humor. Let me also add that Silkstone manages, while filling the book with action and thrills, to remain sensitive to the terrible political unrest currently happening in Egypt. I appreciated that. I liked this book SO much. Hilarious story, clever writing, great characters. The perfect humorous mystery thriller.
