"A delight book! . . . Charles Finch brings early Victorian England
right into our homes, peppered with cucumber sandwiches and bodies.
. . . It's a rare accomplishment to make a murder so charming and a
detective so compelling." --Louise Penny "A fine specimen of the
genre.... Particularly good is [Finch's] delineation of Lenox's
cozy-but-proper relationship with Lady Jane." --The Washington Post
"A remarkable debut." --Richmond Times-Dispatch "The best sort of
historical mystery--clever, charming, full of period detail, and a
delight to read." --David Liss, author of The Whiskey Rebels
"Vividly capturing the essence of Victorian England, Finch presents
us with a unique sleuth who combines the deductive powers of
Sherlock Holmes with the people skills of Thomas Pitt. A sparkling
achievement." --Library Journal (starred review)
