Boring, boring, boring. I agree with many other reviewers in that the author seems to be trying much too hard, with little to no return on her overly political investment. Quite dull and no spark in any of the characters. I will not be pursuing the subsequent books in this series.
While this book will never win any literary awards, it is a light, entertaining romp through an almost believable Dickensian England. It is straight forward black and white spy story - the baddies are ugly and Russian, the goodies are handsome and English. Very clear cut with nothing too unpredictable or mind blowing. I did enjoy the witty narration and the character of India Black. Enjoyable yet probably forgettable. Two and a half stars.
