5.0

Totally unlike his Arkady Renko books set in the USSR and Russia, this book is set in 1870's England. However, like the Renko books, this is a great tale full of interesting social commentary, accurate historical details, a great love story and a completely surprising twist. Overall, I really enjoyed this book, and I see why it was a NY Times Bestseller for 1996.
