Reviews

"Kasasian's debut is an unflinching look at the darker side of Victorian London and a portrait of a heroine strong enough to stand up to a thoroughly disagreeable detective. Clever plotting, morbid humor, and colorful characters are a great treat." -- Kirkus Reviews "One of the most delightful and original new novels of the year-the first in a series that could well become a cult." -- The Daily Mail
