And you will be so caught up in the characters that you'll wish Barron would turn Georgie and Patrick into a series, just as she did with Jane Austen."--Denver Post "A suspenseful tale that fits with several little known facts about the Victorian monarchy.... . Barron skillfully paces the book to keep the reader's interest heightened."--Boulder Daily Camera "A thrilling chase through Europe with plenty of action and.... The stunning conclusion will leave you wondering about the course of British history."--Rocky Mountain News "With all the earmarks of a gothic romance--guilty secrets, hopes dashed, revenge plotted, this fast-paced mystery is a winner for fans of Victoria Holt and Phyllis Whitney, as well as the more contemporary Carlos Ruiz Zafón." --Booklist "Engaging...The history of the royal line is diverting, and the royal gossip is even more so." --Publishers Weekly
