"Combining a convincing imitation of Watson's narrative style with a labyrinthine plot for Holmes to navigate, MacBird's sixth excursion into Victorian London is a treat for all Sherlockians." -Sunday Times "Replete with Sherlockian tradition ... recommended to aficionados of Conan Doyle as well as to all readers of historical detective fiction." -Entertainment Focus "An impressive tale that'll have you turning the pages as fast as you can." -Belfast Telegraph "The brilliant MacBird manages to produce a tale which is both authentic and original, yet pays homage to the genius of Arthur Conan Doyle." -Dundee Courier "Neatly emulates the style and tone of Arthur Conan Doyle's original stories." -Michael Dirda, Washington Post "Perfectly captures the essence of Conan Doyle's fiction."-Independent "No one can surpass Conan Doyle at his best, but a select few pastiche writers get close enough that they can almost reach out and touch the master. Bonnie MacBird is one of those writers that achieves this consistently." -The Doyleockian "A clever re-imagining of our old friend, and very, very readable.' -Fully Booked "The author's latest Sherlock Holmes Adventure is filled with thrills, drama and twists to make it one of the best ones of the series to date." -Love London Love Culture "One of the all-time great Holmesian pastiche writers delivers a masterful, twist-filled adventure that flawlessly captures Watson's narrative voice. A must-read." -Sherlock Holmes Magazine
