I love this sort of book... A rival for M.C. Beaton, my favourite of all time' * Frost Magazine * A nicely complex plot, some genuinely funny moments and some serious observations about the approaching war are balanced by an underlying darkness * Crime Review * A wonderfully gripping, old-fashioned murder mystery * The Lady (4/5 stars) * Pitch-perfect historical crime * The Bookseller * Pacey and full of memorable characters * Four Shires Magazine * A brilliant tongue-in-cheek ensemble... A great success * The Critic *
