"I always wanted to meet Oscar Wilde and now I feel that I have done, and shared a terrific, bizarre and frightening adventure with him. I recommend the experience."-- Anne Perry, "Genius...Wilde has sprung back to life in this thrilling and richly atmospheric new novel.... Magnificent...an unforgettable shocker about sex and vice, love and death." -- "Sunday Express", "Wilde as detective is thoroughly convincing.... The period, and the two or three worlds in which Wilde himself moved, are richly evoked...an excellent detective story. I'm keenly looking forward to the rest of the series."-- The District Messenger , journal of the Sherlock Holmes Society of London, "Brandreth...spins a tale of human frailty and self-preservation...a promising start."--Library Journal, "A witty fin de siècle entertainment, and the rattlingly elegant dialogue is peppered with witticisms uttered by Wilde well before he ever thought of putting them into his plays." -- Sunday Times (London), "A witty fin de siècle entertainment, and the rattlingly elegant dialogue is peppered with witticisms uttered by Wilde well before he ever thought of putting them into his plays." --Sunday Times(London), "This excellent novel...I'd be staggered if, by the end of 2007, you'd read many better whodunnits.

Brandreth demonstrates supremely measured skill as a storyteller." -- "Nottingham Evening Post", "Brandreth's accomplishment is evident in the force of Wilde's personality, which fairly leaps off the page...readers will delight in the effortless characterization and deft portrait of late-Victorian England." -- Stephanie Barron, author of Jane and the Barque of Frailty, "Wilde as detective is thoroughly convincing....

The book is in perfect condition, brand new, and is exactly as described. This item is difficult to find here, and the seller priced it very reasonably. It shipped from the UK to Canada, and unfortunately took a little longer to arrive than the seller hoped, but it was shipped less than 24 hours after I purchased. When I contacted the seller, they were very responsive and helpful. I would not hesitate to purchase from this seller again. Definitely recommend!

  • Oscar Wilde death of no importance

    Eccellent story, good pace, interesting charaters, and very good mystery. Hard to put down but easy to pick up. Look forward to the next book with Oscar Wilde in the mist of the story.
