I found her writing a bit boring: some things here milked to the very end and the plot was genuinely confusing. However, 1 found it interesting once got past the confusion.

Very readable, great Victorian mystery/thriller with an excellent sense of period. Didn't guess all the twists, enjoyed it very much. Long but well worth the read.
