The fourth book in the Cragg & Fidelis historical crime series, from a master of the genre.
This is rollicking stuffCragg and Fidelis are an engaging duo, and their first investigation is like crossing Robert Louis Stevenson with The Archers * Financial Times *
Cragg's first-person narrative voice is nicely judged: historically informed and reticent in the right proportions. Robin Blake's crisply written mystery offers all the pleasures of a classic detective novel and introduces the reader to an appealing new historical sleuth * TLS *
Fascinating . . . Blake's knowledge of an eighteenth-century backwater just shaking off medieval superstitions is deep and engaging * Booklist, starred review *
