tartancrusader's review against another edition
3.0
Mixed feelings about this.
Good points: Victorian London was lovingly and vividly brought to life. The main story itself was a good one.
Bad points: pacing was all over the place. Too much exposition of things that had happened previously (there were two whole chapters where one character explained to another what was going on!)
On the whole, a forgettable novel but there were just enough hints of promise that any future novels in this series might be worth reading.
