Original, chilling, atmospheric mystery with a heroine of remarkable mettle. Kirkus Reviews, January 15, 2014 The descriptions of Victorian London are vivid without being overwhelming, and the storytelling has a direct, focused clip, making this a possible candidate for readers just delving into historical mysteries.
