Críticas:
'Authentic naval settings, the noises and smells of London, the opera - all are given the benefit of Robertson's outstanding attention to detail. Both books stand alone, but I guarantee that once you have read this you will be eager to read the first - and keenly awaiting the third' (Daily Mail)

'[An] extremely impressive debut' (The Times)

'Poetic, enchanting, and chillingly memorable. Imogen Robertson is an exquisite writer, and this is an extraordinary novel' (Tess Gerritsen)

'The pleasure lies in the steady unfurling of a period crime series (1871) that doesn't rely on declamatory villains and rhubarbing local colour. Robertson's language is spry and digestible, her scene-setting broad and detailed, her prose gracefully pressed into the service of a serpentine plot that still allows room for personal passions, particularly music and the theatre' (Christopher Fowler, Financial Times)

'A labyrinthine mystery in the heart of a teeming London, involving fashionable castrati, espionage and bodies in the Thames. When so much historical fiction these days moves in well-ploughed furrows, it's refreshing to find a writer ready to tackle such a large canvas... Robertson has the smarts comfortably to outpace most of her rivals' (Independent)

'Robertson's foray into the world of historical detective fiction is a delight...Westerman and Crowther...are a wonderfully imagined eccentric pair from which all sorts of possibilities emerge and which Robertson skilfully exploits... It may be the very antithesis of the hard-boiled, modern detective novel and while it may flip the usual formulas on their heads, it is as well-written and entertaining as you will find on the bookshop crime shelves this summer' (Sunday Express)

'Imagine a mix of Jane Austen with Charles Dickens, a dash of Inspector Morse, a pinch of John le Carré and a helping of Patricia Cornwell or Kathy Reichs and you might have a vague idea. They are multi-layered, intriguing, oozing with atmosphere and historical detail - naval warfare, actors, singers, musicians, anatomy, stately homes, aristocratic dress and the crowded, stinking London slums - and yet wear their research very lightly' (Northern Echo)

'This series, launched after Robertson won a Telegraph writing competition, continues to excel' (Daily Telegraph)

'What's not to love? Certainly Robertson's crisp, romantic style is endearing, and the story is dramatic and well-constructed enough to keep you delighted from beginning to end' (City A.M.)

'It really is wonderful, the detail, the ambiance, the humour and the history... Robertson has delivered a seductive and beautifully constructed thriller, with pace and passion' (Material Witness)
Reseña del editor:

'Makes you want to read every word...the plot is serpentine and satisfying, with enough false trails and distractions to create a genuine mystery' Telegraph

London, 1781. Harriet Westerman waits for news of her husband, gravely injured at sea. The streets of the city seethe with rumour and conspiracy as the King's navy battles the French at sea. And while the banks of the Thames swarm with life, a body is dragged from its murky waters. In another part of town, where the air seems sweeter, the privileged enjoy a brighter world of complacent wealth and intoxicating celebrity. But as society revels in its pleasurable diversions, a darker plot is being played out.


Yet some are willing to look below the surface, no matter how unsavoury the depths. Harriet believes passionately in justice. Reclusive anatomist Gabriel Crowther is fascinated by the bones beneath the skin. Invited to seek the true nature of the dead man, they risk censure for an unnatural interest in murder. But when the safety of a nation is at stake, personal reputation must give way to the pursuit of reason and truth.
