Review:
"Praise for Georgette Heyer's mystery novels:"

"'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)
