Dr. Siri soon finds himself untangling a mystery involving Hmong insurgents, a possible demonic possession, and a plot by a female terrorist known as the Lizard, who plays Moriarty to his Holmes. As in the previous Dr. Siri books, the plot is mostly a pretext for a leisurely stroll through Laos' history and profoundly rooted religious traditions, and it's this that gives Pogo Stick a certain charm, even if it doesn't always satisfy as a mystery...
