I'm only half way through this stand-alone novel by the author of several excellent series of historical novels. I can already tell you that this is a first-rate story by a master storyteller. The rich language of the poor 19th century Londoners is great fun. The suspense is rich. A colorful, entertaining book. If you like Sherlock Holmes or crime novels in general, you will definitely enjoy this one.
