Critic reviews
I was blown away… Despite covering subjects as diverse as the Victorian guano trade, the KGB’s Cairo operations, post-mortem photography and an Agatha Christie-esque English country house murder, Tidhar manages to brilliantly realise each one
Take this 157-year grand tour in the most interesting of company... As travelling companions go, the Feebes family are hard to beat. (Tish Delaney)
