Review

“For all Joan Aiken fans who delight in her special brand of suspense and mystery, she has now concocted a parade of circumstances and characters resulting in a historical spoof that focuses on a wild scheme to foil the coronation of James IV.” Publishers Weekly

“Immensely exciting, weird, and funny, Miss Aiken is at her best.” --London Evening Standard

“The author is better at creating villains than anybody since Dickens.” — Time Magazine Time Magazine
