"A phenomenal historical mystery. Thrilling and evocative, darkly funny and surprisingly touching. Mukherjee's prose is so sharp that the setting feels immediate and vital. I can't imagine how Mukherjee will top Smoke and Ashes, but I can't wait to see what he comes up with."-- "Criminal Element [praise for the Captain Sam Wyndham mystery series]"
