"Highly unusual ... exciting and original.... It starts with a violent death in the lobby of the legendary Savoy Hotel and quickly expands to include art vandalism, Gilbert and Sullivan, and a host of other peculiarities."--Chicago Tribune "A twisty thriller, full of action and plot surprises."--Publishers Weekly "Invulnerable, genial and crafty." --Los Angeles Times
"They're old, they're cranky, and their chaotic work habits inevitably lead to disaster. But life always seems livelier whenever Arthur Bryant and John May are on a case!" --New York Times Book Review "Cranky, eccentric, and brilliant, Bryant and May dispense fascinating bits of knowledge as they solve supposedly unsolvable crimes." --Cleveland Plain Dealer
