'Golding's tale of Cat Royal is exciting, funny and of course, packed with adventure,’ Guardian ‘The story itself plunges headlong from the theater into 1790s-era London’s muddy streets,’ Kirkus Starred Review 'It contains a wonderful colourful cast of characters – awkward actors, on stage, and off, barrow boys in the grimy marketplace, street gangs fighting for territory…and it's packed with local colour and authentic detail. And of course there is the diamond mystery. What more could you want?’ Toppsta 'Julia Golding takes us into an authentically smelly and dangerous world and my guess is that confident readers of 10+ will love it. A terrific read.’ The Historical Novel Society 'A truly exciting, unputdownable read!’ Books for Topics
