"""The abundant charm of the heroine and the heavily detailed historical background will hook readers and keep them hooked."" -- ""Kirkus Reviews"" ""Davis does her usual brilliant job of integrating the history of the period, warts and all...with a fast-paced and fair whodunit. This entry reinforces her place at the top of the historical mystery pack."" -- ""Publishers Weekly (starred review)"" ""It's up to Flavia to sort out who did what, but it's the delicious details that are the real appeal here. Only Davis could somehow ace the insertion of the anachronistic expression 'pimping his ride' into a narrative about the splendors of ancient times."" -- ""Booklist (starred review)"" ""Davis balances grit and frivolity with ease. Flavia feels like the love child of Philip Marlowe and Carrie Bradshaw--she's on the case, observing and reporting with care, but keeps a running line of saucy commentary on everyone throughout."" -- ""BookPage"""
