Great follow on book from (A Most Dangerous Woman) waiting to see if there is a follow on for this series Arthur DeSalle wants Sarah Tanner's help, he suspects that his mother is being duped by a mesmerist but his mother is resistant to the idea that this man is duping her. At the same time Sarah is dealing with a group of rowdy youths who seem intent on closing her down. As she searches for answers to both questions she finds herself in peril and finds that nothing is as it seems. Interesting story, though there were moments where it did seem to drag a little and lose momentum. I was quite drawn into the story and suspect that I will have some marked victorian turns of phrase for a while. nessuna recensione | aggiungi una recensione
