Review: Financially desperate young woman wears only designer clothes, shoes, bags

I almost quit reading this book because the young woman PI was so irresponsible with money.  Just as I was about to give up on her, she goes to Portugal and has a great adventure.  I learned a lot about the culture, geography, and history of Portugal, which fascinated me.  The intrigue was dynamite.  I still find the friendship between the protagonist and the head of the tile syndicate completely implausible.  That and the extravagant spending habits kept me from loving it.  It wasn't well proofread, either.
