This is the third book in King's Mary Russell / Sherlock Holmes series, and the more I read, the more I like the series.

By far, not LRK's best MR book...yet it was a must read one to continue on with the series. Pretty unforgettable as I read it almost a year ago and can't remember the majority of the book, which is pretty uncommon for her books.

Very smart book. Way smarter than me.
Again wonderful storytelling by Laurie R King. Mary Russell is becoming one of my favorite heroine.
Yeah, yeah, yeah. Can't read Derrida and Barthes all the time.
