Description
- Even knowing these are "Wild and heartless times" because of king ferdinand's terrible reign, he agrees to try.
- The trip will give him a chance to see his love, juana.
- From the start, it seems that the little party is being followed.
- The horses are poisoned, and there are further ominous signs of a plot.
- Whom can they trust?
- Have they been sent into a trap?
- Intrigue is aiken's stock-in-trade, and there is plenty to be found in this novel.
- While readers may sense a lack of underlying theme and wish for a greater development of felix's affection for juana, they could hardly ask for a more diverting, action-filled plot.
- As usual, aiken writes with endless inventiveness and ease.
