Rezensionen

A Publishers Weekly Staff Pick

"A pacy and twisting story - made me forget I wasn't reading a Sir Arthur original."-The Sun

"In a world with more than its share of Sherlock Holmes pastiches, it is rare for one to soar above the rest, but Bonnie MacBird's Art in the Blood achieves this singular feat and deserves a tip of the deerstalker." --Otto Penzler, editor, "The Big Book of Sherlock Holmes Stories"

"Dark, stylish, ingeniously plotted. Gripping, enthralling read. Holmes & Watson live!" --Hugh Fraser

"A thoroughly entertaining Sherlock Holmes adventure worthy of Doyle himself. ... vivid period detail, a superb, labyrinthine plot, snappy pacing and, most importantly, a deep respect for the classic characters." --Bryan Cogman, Producer/Writer, HBO's Game of Thrones

"Bonnie MacBird's ART IN THE BLOOD has the three key ingredients for a delicious pastiche: Meticulous research, plausibility, and grand fun!" --Leslie S. Klinger, editor, "The New Annotated Sherlock Holmes"
