Not a great book. While I enjoyed the premise of the book, the writing was difficult to put up with. Going back and forth from first to third person always bothers me. I liked the plot - a madam caught up in espionage with multiple players. I thought that there would be some romance tied into the story but there wasn't - she's running a whorehouse for god sake. No sex? Really?

The characters were OK, sometimes believable and sometimes a bit overdone. I did like vincent, but he was too young for his ability/experience. I liked French, although a bit stiff. I really enjoyed India - this fact alone may make me seek out the second book in the series when it's publisheed.
