Customer Reviews

If you are a Deanna Raybourn fan, you will love this new book. Exciting and memorizing, Raybourn continues to thrill her audiences with a enthralling heroine; a dashing, though unlikely hero; a carnival side-show and a mysterious murder plot that all leads back to the upper crust of society. This is the first in Raybourn new series, and I for one cannot wait for the next novel.
