A somewhat average Jimgrim story that nevertheless entertains and satisfies the spirit of adventure. Once again set in Palestine after World War I, this novel finds Jimgrim unearthing a conspiracy among corrupt British officers, greedy Arab opportunists, and nationalist zealots to create conditions that would launch the Muslim world into war against the British across the Empire. Mundy's heroes, in this case, are the British officers at the top, honorable Sikhs, and wrongly accused subalterns. Somehow, it all works. As usual Mundy successfully brings out much more characterization than anyone has a right to expect from pulp magazine adventure stories. And he does it through both dialogue and introspective passages. ( ) no reviews | add a review
