Praise for the Sergeant Cribb series:

'Delightful Victorian mysteries, featuring Sergeant Cribb and Constable Thackeray of the Yard. . . . [A] fine picture of period vice, good mystery plotting, and fun.'-San Francisco Chronicle

'These are humorous novels and the humor is character-based. . . . Cribb was the first of the new-wave Victorian crime-fighters and is still arguably the best.'-Sherlock Holmes magazine
