“THIS IS PERRY AT THE TOP OF HER FORM.”

—Ellery Queen’s Mystery Magazine

“The Ripper’s legacy is frighteningly alive in Anne Perry’s satisfying new novel…. Perry is one of the few mystery writers today with the power to evoke so completely the London of 1890: from the wretched, vicious slums to the elaborate—and just as vicious—drawing rooms.”

—Milwaukee Journal Sentinel

“Recommended … Perry’s evocation of late-nineteenth-century London is a major reason for reading her mysteries—the sights, smells, and voices of the period all ring true.”

—Library Journal

“Tantalizing suspense … A web of intrigue that will stump even the most experienced mystery fan.”

—Mostly Murder

“Beautifully crafted, filled with the gaslit atmosphere of a bygone world.”

—Cosmopolitan
