I am always eager to read each installment in the Mary Russell series, and this book did not disappoint.
As with the last few books, in this story Russell and Holmes are brought into a new case almost immediately following their last. This time the case involves Mary's old friend from Oxford, Ronnie, and her family. After investigating clues in England, including breaking into Bedlam Hospital, Russell and Holmes make their way to Venice to try to solve the case.
This book was fast paced and an enjoyable read. While not the best in the series, it is definitely good addition to the series.
