Reviews
"I always wanted to meet Oscar Wilde and now I feel that I have done, and shared a terrific, bizarre and frightening adventure with him. I recommend the experience."-- Anne Perry, "Genius...Wilde has sprung back to life in this thrilling and richly atmospheric new novel.... Magnificent...an unforgettable shocker about sex and vice, love and death." -- "Sunday Express", "Wilde as detective is thoroughly convincing.... The period, and the two or three worlds in which Wilde himself moved, are richly evoked...an excellent detective story. I'm keenly looking forward to the rest of the series."-- The District Messenger , journal of the Sherlock Holmes Society of London, "Brandreth...spins a tale of human frailty and self-preservation...a promising start."--Library Journal, "A witty fin de siècle entertainment, and the rattlingly elegant dialogue is peppered with witticisms uttered by Wilde well before he ever thought of putting them into his plays." -- Sunday Times (London), "A first-class stunner...[A] wow of a history-mystery...fascinating..." -- "Booklist" (Starred review), "A witty fin de siècle entertainment, and the rattlingly elegant dialogue is peppered with witticisms uttered by Wilde well before he ever thought of putting them into his plays." --Sunday Times(London), "This excellent novel...I'd be staggered if, by the end of 2007, you'd read many better whodunnits.

The first in a series of fiendishly clever historical murder mysteries, it casts British literature's most fascinating and controversial figure as the lead sleuth. A young artist's model has been murdered, and legendary wit Oscar Wilde enlists his friends Arthur Conan Doyle and Robert Sherard to help him investigate. But when they arrive at the scene of the crime they find no sign of the gruesome killing--save one small spatter of blood, high on the wall. Set in London, Paris, Oxford, and Edinburgh at the height of Queen Victoria's reign, here is a gripping eyewitness account of Wilde's secret involvement in the curious case of Billy Wood, a young man whose brutal murder served as the inspiration for The Picture of Dorian Gray . Told by Wilde's contemporary--poet Robert Sherard--this novel provides a fascinating and evocative portrait of the great playwright and his own "consulting detective," Sherlock Holmes creator, Arthur Conan Doyle., One of Britain's premier royal biographers pens the first in a series of fiendishly clever and stylish historical murder mysteriesLovers of historical mystery will relish this chilling Victorian tale based on real events and cloaked in authenticity.

- o***w (3152)- Votos emitidos por el comprador.Últimos 6 mesesCompra verificadaA nice copy of The New Revised Standard Version of the Bible. It was securely packaged and shipped quickly. I am very pleased. I highly commend this dealer to anyone interested in the items offered by this person for sale. I don't think the purchaser will be disappointed in the service received. All told this is a fantastic seller. Ebay will certainly encourage any buyer to leave extensive feedback so others can share in the positive experience one has. Onward and upward as they say....
- r***g (1312)- Votos emitidos por el comprador.Últimos 6 mesesCompra verificadaMixed review...but not seller's fault. Great seller, fast shipping. But our regular postal delivery worker was on vacation and temp route worker lied saying packed was delivered. Did not put in lock boxes and said handed to "individual". Probably stole or lost it. Spend two days asking everyone in building for it. Put in lost non-delivery with USPS. Leaving positive as seller shipped...just never received. Not their fault.Vintage Fire King Anchor Hocking Measuring Batter Bowl #88 Glass 4 Cup/1Qt (#356289813873)
