"The Last Cato" as well.1 of 1 people found the following review helpful. It was a good quick read and an interesting premisBy Mrs. Cynthia C. RoelofsHaving just returned from St. Petersburg and viewing the replica of the original Amber Room, I was very interested in reading this book. The facts about the original Amber Room and it's continued disappearance were again interesting and I was able to visualize clearly the goal. The characters, however, were not particularly well developed and the protagonist not particularly appealing. It was a good quick read and an interesting premis.1 of 1 people found the following review helpful. Not as addictive as the last cato, but definitely a worthwhile readBy KarolinaThis was definitely a worthwhile airplane or beach read, but doesn't extend much farther than that. The story is compelling, but terse and light on historical facts.
