A classic, witty and wonderful mystery from the king of crime. Fast-paced and fun, clever and exciting. I loved it. -- Chris Whitaker I loved every criminally delicious moment of Holmes, Margaret and Poe. What a wild ride! Hooked from the first page - and not just by the edge of my seat crime stories but also the depth and complexity of the characters. Rock on Book 2! -- Dreda Say Mitchell Entertaining * Financial Times *
