A review by katmackie
Cargo Of Orchids by Susan Musgrave, Susan Musgrave

2.0

I don't really know where to start, so this might be patchy, but I'll keep it as brief as possible. I was very disappointed by this novel. I was intrigued by the plot, but once I jumped into it I became mostly depressed by the protagonist. I grew to dislike her more and more as the novel progressed and then once I realized how it was going to conclude, I felt conned out of a thoughtful ending. Unless you're a totally oblivious reader, you will see what's going on before you reach the climax of this book. I wouldn't recommend this to anyone. The overwhelming dirty atmosphere left me itchy and the lethargy I experienced from this stress bomb wasn't worth it in the least bit. I'm giving it two stars instead of one because Susan Musgrave is a good writer, and I do respect her abilities.
