Reviews

Praise for Where the Dead Lie
 
“C.S. Harris really is a master of storytelling. Each book in the Sebastian St. Cyr series is a tense, tightly plotted and atmospherically executed read. Full of period correct detail and fascinating, complex characters, there is never a dull moment or wasted word...This is definitely one of my best reads of the year.”—Open Book Society
 
“Fantastic...Her attention to detail richly evokes the feel of the time period but is never overdone. Harris' characters are lushly drawn in all their glorious complexity...a satisfying historical mystery that is engrossing 'til the last page is turned.”—Fresh Fiction

“Exceeds even the previous novels in psychological depth...relentless pacing...a gripping read.”—Booklist
 
“Moving depictions of life on London's mean streets are the best parts of Harris's 12th Regency-era mystery featuring dashing Sebastian St. Cyr, Viscount Devlin...Harris is better than most in investing even minor characters with sometimes heartbreaking humanity.”—Publishers Weekly
 
“This latest installment in Harris's well-researched historical series features a charismatic lead who's unafraid of exposing the inner workings of a controlling authority when it turns against its own people.”—Library Journal
