Praise for The Cloak and Dagger Club ""I was thrilled to have the chance to read Jackie McMahon's The Cloak and Dagger Club, a meticulously crafted fair-play mystery set against a richly drawn 1930s London that glitters off the page. With a charming, witty heroine, a second-chance romance as compelling as the whodunit itself, and a brilliant conceit inspired by the real-life Detection Club, this is a stunning debut and I'll be first in line for whatever McMahon writes next. Fans of Deanna Raybourn's Veronica Speedwell series will find plenty to love here."" - Liz Lawson, New York Times bestselling author of The Agathas and It Happened One Murder ""Author Jackie McMahon has crafted one of the Golden Age-iest mysteries I’ve had the pleasure of reading by a contemporary author. The Cloak and Dagger Club has it all: a whip-smart detective heroine, an ingeniously clued puzzle, and a brilliant sendup of the real-life Detection Club, in which authors such as Agatha Christie and Dorothy L. Sayers rubbed shoulders. Come for the meta commentary on detective fiction, stay for the multiple swoon-worthy romances and sly Christie (et al!) Easter eggs. What an absolute delight; I can’t wait to read whatever McMahon comes up with next."" - Kemper Donovan, bestselling author of the Ghostwriter Mystery series and host of the ""All About Agatha"" podcast “The Cloak and Dagger Club is a stylish cocktail of sharply drawn characters, dry wit, and intrigue, raised in celebration of the genre.” - Bryn Donovan, author of Her Knight at the Museum
