Review
"Should a search for a stranger, for unknown but obviously important reasons, not keep your interest, there are beautiful women, lots of great scenery and a plot that involves the Man in the Iron Mask and a hoard of stolen Nazi gold. That may seem too much for one novel, but Hawkins keeps it all moving and weaves it into a very tidy plot." -Margaret Cannon, The Globe and Mail, August 21, 2004
