The Night of Four Hundred Rabbits by Elizabeth Peters

2.0

There's a reason why I don't reread this one as often as her other standalones. Rather than a fun, little mysterious escapade with a historical treasure at the center, this is grim and centered around drugs. Very contemporary to it's time, in the approach to drugs/drug use, politics, morals. A bit convoluted, and unsatisfying in the end: her original BF is a selfish ass; the dad barely says three words on page except to push away the MC; and the final romance is very rushed (and the dude is kinda offputting).
