 One of the best of her non-mystery novels March 21, 2007
1 out of 1 found this review helpful
Though it is a mystery without a murder. The central character is marooned in a guesthouse waiting for a train somewhere in the Middle East (something Christie experienced more than once). She runs out of reading material. There is nowhere to go but the desert. She is thrown back on herself and forced to reflect on her life. Bit by bit she begins to suspect that her life as a contented wife and mother in a peaceful country town where nothing ever happens is not as rosy as she thinks. And what's the real truth behind her daughter's marriage? Will she return home a different woman, changed by the insights sent her by the bareness of the desert? Read the book to find out.
GOOD BOOK TO GET LOST IN. September 15, 1999

If you like this book you will also love SToeln Moments, a splendid novel by Barbara Jeanne Fisher. ..Once I picked up Stolen Moments, I couldn't put it down. A love story not soon to be forgotten. It's exuberant, inspirational, breathtaking, and heart warming. . . .all at once. A book to be read over and over again."
 A Wonderful Novel July 6, 1999

If you think Agatha's mystery novels are superb, wait till you read this one. This is the engaging tale of a middle-aged woman who is forced to sit with herself only, and think about herself and what her life is all about. It will make you think of your life at the same time, and what it means and how you treat the people you care about the most. I have enjoyed it tremendously and know you will also if you read it.
