专业书评 From Booklist
Gr. 4-7. Running down the alphabet, Exile is the fifth title in the series that began with Assassin (2004), written by Patricia Finney, though the purported author of all the volumes is Lady Grace Cavendish, protege of Queen Elizabeth I. In this tale, a jewel is stolen from an exiled noble from Sharakand. When a laundry maid is falsely accused of the crime, Grace tries to discover the thief's identity. Less convincing than the portrayals of the English characters are the colorful but cardboard figures of the visitors from Sharakand. Still, this is an enjoyable mystery, which moves swiftly to a satisfying conclusion. Carolyn Phelan
