Cette critique a été écrite dans le cadre des Critiques en avant-première de LibraryThing. This mystery novel set in London England in 1862 really impressed me. The characters were easy to identify with and there were enough false leads and red herrings to keep me guessing until near the end.

This mystery novel, set in London, England, in 1862, was a bit tricky for me. I was not expecting so many characters, and it was a bit hard to get into the story, but as soon as I was involved, it was quite pleasant to read this murder mystery. Everyone had a possible motive, and it was nice that the author kept track of everyone, so it was great to know backstories and where these people came from.
My only complaint about this story was how the actual murder was presented. I was really into the suspense, and out of nowhere there it was, with no suspense at all. After that, nothing else that could happen seemed important enough. Cette critique a été écrite dans le cadre des Critiques en avant-première de LibraryThing. This book reminds me of "old" fiction/mysteries, with a feel similar to Agatha Christie or Sherlock Holmes. I loved the classic feel and descriptions of the characters and surroundings. Lisa Lane has a very mature, warm writing style. A very fun read.Cette critique a été écrite dans le cadre des Critiques en avant-première de LibraryThing. I received this book as an Early Reviewer and this is my honest review.I love historical mysteries, they are my favourite genre. This book drew me in and kept me turning pages until the end. Every suspect had a good reason for wanting to kill the horrible victim. I very much enjoyed the characters of Slaughter and Honeycutt, but I especially enjoyed the informative backgrounds on the aspects of the time - such as Women's Rights, the Theatre and Medicine. This was a story that drew me in, and I'm looking forward to reading more books in the series. Highly recommended for those who like a historical whodunnit with realistic characters portrayed in realistic situations. Cette critique a été écrite dans le cadre des Critiques en avant-première de LibraryThing. Received this from early reviewers program.I really enjoyed this historical mystery. Set in London in 1862 and blending historical fact with fiction and mystery this was a quick and easy read. At first I was afraid the characters would be hard to keep track of, but once into the story it wasn't so hard. Seemed a bit of a serviceable mystery, but I enjoy historical mysteries and I enjoyed this one very much. Very likeable characters I would not mind reading more about. aucune critique | ajouter une critique
