'Dastardliness on a big scale is uncovered in this well-plotted, evocative novel' — Nicolette Jones, The Sunday Times

'It's a dashing plot, an atmospheric setting and an extensive and imaginative cast. Katherine Woodfine handles it all with aplomb' — Julia Eccleshare, Guardian

'An incredible read full of mystery, wonder and adventure…This is now one of my top ten.' — Celeste, age 13, LoveReading4Kids reviewer
