Review
Praise for Georgette Heyer's mystery novels:

'We had better start ranking Heyer alongside such incomparable whodunit authors as Christie, Marsh, Tey and Allingham' ―
San Francisco Chronicle

'Rarely have we seen humour and mystery so perfectly blended' ―
New York Times

'Sharp, clear and witty' ―
The New Yorker

'Heyer's characters and dialogue are an abiding delight to me ... I have seldom met people to whom I have taken so violent a fancy from the word "Go"' ―
Dorothy L. Sayers
