Reception

Kirkus Reviews wrote of it: "A ruthlessly efficient straight-arrow tale that’s a welcome change of pace for the Monkeewrench gang, even though both their peculiar talents and their even more peculiar personalities are seriously underemployed."[1]

Publishers Weekly wrote: "The jokes, cold-blooded murders and the past secrets sometimes work at cross-purposes, but the courage and indomitable spirit of the plucky trio will win readers over as they speed through the final pages of the race-against-the-clock ending."[2]

Entertainment Weekly said the plot "delivers both laughs and a sense of peril."[3]
