Jumped between 2 contemporary murders and a secret from the past in a fairly smooth fashion.Felt a bit more modern than it's setting, but still an enjoyable read ( ) I read the whole series beginning with this book - 4 in all so far (2015). Really enjoyed them all. For a relatively young author, Imogen Robertson, writes like a real master. Great language, authentic atmosphere, interesting characters and good suspense. Everything you could want in a historical murder mystery. Can't wait to read further books in this series.
It’s a sensitive melodrama, investing almost every character with a dark and sometimes unsavory past, its plot filled with signet rings, wills, adventuresses, concealed letters and dissection, all set against the pleasantly unpleasant background of the Gordon Riots, which prodded a mob of Protestant Londoners into an anti-Catholic frenzy. The climax, as might be expected, involves a chase across the ravaged city to ensure that justice is done to the wronged and that the wrongdoers get their comeuppance. Appartient à la série
