April 2010 Debut of the Month.
A rich historical novel, full of mystery, secrets and hidden identities which involve family inheritance, murder and some intriguing characters. It romps along at a good pace, gaining speed and complexity as it goes. Atmospheric and the most enormous fun, it is not the literary masterpiece the publishers would like us to believe, but a thoroughly good read.
Comparison: Jed Rubenfeld, Mikkel Birkegaard, Robert Goddard.
