"Praise for Georgette Heyer's mystery novels: 'We had better start ranking Heyer alongside such incomparable whodunit authors as Christie, Marsh, Tey and Allingham' * San Francisco Chronicle * 'Rarely have we seen humour and mystery so perfectly blended' * New York Times * 'Sharp, clear and witty' * The New Yorker * 'Heyer's characters and dialogue are an abiding delight to me ... I have seldom met people to whom I have taken so violent a fancy from the word ""Go""' * Dorothy L. Sayers *"
