Helpful Score: 3
Wonderful novel! If you like Dickens and other 19th century literature, then this one is definitely for you. The novel 'is awash with all manner of gloomy Dickensian motifs: pickpockets, orphans, grim prisons, lunatic asylums, "laughing villains," and, of course, stolen fortunes and girls made out to be mad.' This one keeps you guessing and has so many twists that the plot will send you in the opposite direction at the turn of a page. All is certainly NOT what it seems to be! "A stunning story told in lavish language by a very gifted author...... Highly recommended!"
