Very good historical mystery that takes place right after the Great Fire of London. Really liked the characters, especially Lucy Campion. ( ) 4.5 stars...I've read alot of the reviews and I really just think that some people just take everything way too seriously. I saw alot of people were criticizing the historical accuracy etc. etc. To me, fiction means it's not true so the authors can take whatever liberties they choose. If readers want complete historical accuracy then they need to stick with a non-fiction book!!! Anyways, I liked the book. I read to escape and for fun, not to nit- pick every little historical detail. The mystery was complex enough for me. The characters were likeable and there wasn't alot of redundancy in the writing which are the few things I can't tolerate. It was just really well written I thought and Im looking forward to the next one.... sin reseñas | añadir una reseña

"It's 1666 and the Great Fire has just decimated an already plague-ridden London. Lady's maid Lucy Campion, along with pretty much everyone else left standing, is doing her part to help the city clean up and recover. But their efforts come to a standstill when a couple of local boys stumble across a dead body that should have been burned up in the fire but miraculously remained intact--the body of a man who died not from the plague or the fire, but from the knife plunged into his chest. Searching for a purpose now that there's no lady in the magistrate's household for her to wait on, Lucy has apprenticed herself to a printmaker. But she can't help but use her free time to help the local constable, and she quickly finds herself embroiled in the murder investigation. It will take all of her wits and charm, not to mention a strong stomach and a will of steel, if Lucy hopes to make it through alive herself, in From the Charred Remains by Susanna Calkins"-- No se han encontrado descripciones de biblioteca. |
