“Bradley’s characters, wonderful dialogue and plot twists are a most winning combination.”
—USA TODAY
“Alan Bradley’s third Flavia de Luce mystery….exceeds in every way, if that’s even possible, his first two. Flavia is always feisty, always smart. I adore her. And while it was wonderful to read her as an adult, I wish I’d had Flavia as a role model while growing up. It’s cool to be smart, It’s cool to be Flavia! And it’s great to be among her legion of fans.
—Louise Penny, bestselling author of the multi-award-winning Chief Inspector Armand Gamache series.
“…Flavia de Luce will make readers forget Nancy Drew.”
—People
“Flavia, oh Flavia, how I’ve missed you!…If you like your heroines whip-smart, lippy and resourceful, Flavia’s your gal….This is a delightful read, and I was so immersed at one point I sailed right through my metro stop.”
—Anne Sutherland, The Gazette (Montreal)
