As a lover of all things history (especially to do with historical crime), I really enjoyed this book. Bess was a likeable (for all her faults) character and the Thief-taker General makes a good villain. The only small drawback would be the slang - I enjoyed it and it gave Bess that little bit more voice, but it could also get in the way at times as I had to flip to the back to find the translations.

All in all, I loved this book and will probably reread it in the not so distant future.

This was one of the few book series that I obsessively read and instantly loved. The romance isn't fast paced, there's historical facts that are interesting, and Maniscalco really knew how to captivate not just me, but other readers too (I got my friend obsessed with this series as well).
I will say, its not for those who don't like the extreme detail on violence and gore, but if you're a fan of crime novels and topics such as Jack the Ripper, then you ought to love this book!
I'm so glad I found this book and would happily recommend this to many people.
