The circumstances of how Okewood gains knowledge of the treasure and the subsequent pursuit by Okewood's nemesis, Clubfoot, made for a fast-paced, suspenseful, and entertaining read highlighted by a romantic interest and a satisfying ending. The only drawback was the frequent passages in German that lacked translation into English – translations that would have added to the average non-German speaking reader's enjoyment. ( )
