Beautifully written, Henderson's Spear is bound to appeal to those who like adventure and exotic places in their stories. But I found myself drifting as the details, specific names and places, were too much for me to keep track of.
The two intersecting stories, the one of Henderson and the one of Liv, the documentary filmmaker, kept me guessing about their connection, which was great. What was most compelling was Liv's account of her life and the challenges she was facing, regarding the daughter she never knew, the father whose disappearance was unexplained and the reason she was in a Tahiti prison.
Because this is not a genre I particularly like, I was reluctant to give a starred review.
