5.0 out of 5 stars Hysterical, it got me through my exams !!, 25 Aug 2001
By A Customer
The book concerns an anthropology student who takes up a rather eccentric millionaire's offer to investigate something - what, she doesn't know. In the course of this she meets a handsome archaeologist and the rest you can guess !! What I loved was the absolutely hysterical portrayal of the heroine's thoughts and her various encounters with the mad clique sponging off said millionaire! Well worth the price of the book and one of the best Elizabeth Peter's non-series books.

5.0 out of 5 stars Delightful mystery, 29 Mar 2004
By L O'connor (richmond, surrey United Kingdom) - See all my reviews
(TOP 500 REVIEWER)    (REAL NAME)   
D.J. Abbott, a young anthropology student, takes a summer job in Arizona, working for eccentric millionaire Hank Hunnicutt, who wants her help with a mysterious project he is working on. When D.J. arrives she is met by Hank's gorgeous but hostile assistant, Tom de Karsky, who clearly wishes she wasn't there. Hank's luxurious desert ranch is full of a bizzare variety of houseguests professing weird beliefs, reincarnation, spiritualism, the lost Atlantis etc, and D.J. is suspicious of them all, especially after Hank mysteriously dissapears, and she is obliged to join forces with gorgeous Tom to track him down. Even having a sinister mystery to solve does not suppress D.J. tremendous appetite, throughout the book she munches her way through huge quantities of delicious food, this is not a book you should read while hungry or on a diet, but it is an extremely enjoyable and exciting read, full of humour, suspense and likeable characters. I love Elizabeth Peters' contemporary thrillers, what a pity she seems to have given up writing them in favour of her saga about tiresome Amelia Peabody.

5.0 out of 5 stars Mixes new age weird with old age science, 20 Jan 2001
By A Customer
This review is from: Summer of the Dragon (Hardcover)
When a young archeology student gets a summer job working for an eccentric millionaire, she meets a cast of characters ranging from the serious to the bizarre, and finds herself in mortal danger. Told with Elizabeth Peters light touch and humour, we meet a heroine with an appetite for food and life, dealing with a situation that spirals out of her control and leaves her not sure who to trust. She wins through by using her brains and a lot of imagination.
