Moroccan Traffic



Moroccan Traffic
By Dorothy Dunnett
Genre:-Classic Crime/Women Sleuths/Humour
Pages:-272
Publisher:-Farrago
Blurb:-The seventh in a series of witty, erudite suspense mysteries, by the celebrated classic author-with an independent, smart heroine and an ending sure to surprise!
 Upwardly mobile and smart Wendy Helmann, Executive Secretary, is in Marrakesh with her mother while her boss, Chairman of Kingsley Conglomerates, conducts very delicate if slightly dubious takeover negotiations.
 But while Morocco is a romantice place, Wendy finds herself side-tracked from its attractions by the antics of Rita Geddes and a few peripheral problems such as kidnapping, explosions, industrial espionage, murder and car chases across the High Atlas mountains... Enter Johnson Johnson and his yacht Dolly.

My Review:-This is the last book in 'A Dolly Series' and I've had the pleasure to read and review all 7 books. As always we have Wendy Helmann, Executive Secretary to Sir Robert Kingsley. The book begins with Wendy coming home after a lunch meeting with Johnson Johnson, and her mother shouting "Bifocal Spectacles!" complaining about her daughter going out with Johnson, even thou it was about a comission for a painter of the Chairman in oil, Sir Robert Kingsley. We have a bomb while Johnson and Sir Robert are talking. We visit Marrakesh with Wendy and her mother, and meet many characters past and present along the way. I did find part a bit confusing, but I also thought Wendy did also. I did enjoy the book, but not as good as the other books in 'A Dolly Series'.
