Review:
‘Green (1846–1935), whose smooth prose remains fresh, makes Gryce an interesting enough character to leave fans of traditional whodunits eager to see more of the detective in reissues of his further exploits.’ Publishers Weekly
‘A well plotted whodunit, and a fascinating introduction to Ebenezer Gryce, a worthy competitor for Sherlock Holmes and a character who really deserves a renaissance with mystery readers.’ MostlyFiction Book Reviews
“Attractively bound in black and gold, with vivid coloured jackets, these books are bound to be immensely popular.” DAILY MIRROR
