"... an informative and compelling read ..."

By Shirley Carnahan: "The Camel and the Scorpion takes the reader into the murky world of international politics through the eyes of an intelligent but naïve young teacher who gets drawn into more than she expected. I have little background in the Middle East, but I found The Camel and the Scorpion both an informative and a compelling read, starting with the anecdote at the beginning which sets the tone for the entire novel."
