Something is wrong.She starts with hotel security, then the police, then the American embassy, at each confronting questions she can’t fully answer: What exactly is John doing in Lisbon? Why would he drag her along on his business trip? Who would want to harm him? And why does Ariel know so little about her new—much younger—husband?The clock is ticking.

"Only OK, given the attention it has gotten. Expected more. Wayyyyyy overdone gender politics. Either the protagonist is the unluckiest woman in the world or the author wrote an extremely unrealistic lifetime of circumstances for her. Also there was a minor end left untied (unless I missed something). Pretty good ending though. "
"Just back from that part of the world, so the details of Lisbon rang true. This is a fast paced page turner. Highly recommend. "

"Two Nights in Libson is for you if you like thrillers, revenge, and bringing down the patriarchy. I was skeptical of the author's ability to create feminist characters; however, I think he created complex characters who are strong, smart, and sympathetic. Two Nights in Libson reminds me of an Ocean 11-type revenge con, where you only see what's happening on the surface, and the details of the play aren't revealed until the end."
