"A good book different from my normal style but still very good! Felt like the ending was abrupt but it does end well." — Emilie (4 out of 5 stars)
"A good book different from my normal style but still very good! Felt like the ending was abrupt but it does end well."
“What a gem! Robertson’s writing has been compared to John Grisham with good reason. There is murder, mystery, red herrings, and even some romance. The reader is taken into the world of spies in 1870s Paris where everyone is a suspect.”
“European history buffs will appreciate this well-researched story featuring a number of real figures and events of the period. A sense of Paris under siege is nicely cinematic.”
