I had never before read a book by Grace Hitchcock, and I am please to say this will not be the last one I read by her. This book set in the Chicago Worlds Fair is a great historical detective novel, with a quirky main character that really pulls you in from the start.
I can not wait to read more from this author.

Crass, crude and clumsy. I couldn't wait to finish this book. I found the storyline ridiculous and was patched together with lots of lectures about the plight of Africa. Whilst I think that enlightening us all about the corruption and aid problems is a noble cause, the way it was shoehorned in around this ludicrous poorly written story was a shameful insult for a novel.
