"Skilfully mixing real history with action sequences worthy of Lee Child, this is historical crime-writing at its best." - John Williams, the Mail on Sunday on The Year of the Gun Secret Service Agent Wiggins returns for a brand new adventure - and meets with his old mentor, Sherlock Holmes in a story of escalating intrigue, danger and violence. 'Engaging series of historical thrillers... The story rattles along at pace, the characters are engaging and the fight scenes burst with action. But Lyle's great strength is in his depiction of time and place; from its stinking tenements, where babies cry from hunger, to its sinister docks and upmarket brothels, the Edwardian city - then still part of Britain - is brought to life in all its squalid, magnificent glory' Financial Times 'Full throttle ... delivering entertainment in spades' Myles McWeeney, Irish Independent
