Rezensionen
Flavia [is] irrepressible, precocious and indefatigable. . . . A whole new chapter of Flavia s life opens as she approaches adolescence. Will she become the Madame Curie of crime? Bookreporter

Outstanding . . . As usual, Bradley makes his improbable series conceit work and relieves the plot s inherent darkness with clever humor. Publishers Weekly (starred review)

There s only one Flavia. . . . Series fans will anticipate the details of this investigation, along with one last taste of Flavia s unorthodox family life. Library Journal (starred review)

Fans of the precocious sleuth who share her unapologetically enthusiastic sense that an unexamined corpse was a tale untold will rub their hands gleefully, confident that her resolution will unleash a dazzling barrage of innocent-seeming questions, recherché chemical and pharmacological tidbits, fibs and whoppers, and the most coyly bratty behavior outside the pages of Kay Thompson s chronicles of Eloise. . . . Bradley s unquenchable heroine brings the most complicated case I had ever come across to a highly satisfying conclusion, with the promise of still brighter days ahead. Kirkus Reviews

Acclaim for Alan Bradley s beloved Flavia de Luce novels, winners of the Crime Writers Association Debut Dagger Award, Barry Award, Agatha Award, Macavity Award, Dilys Award, and Arthur Ellis Award

If ever there were a sleuth who s bold, brilliant, and, yes, adorable, it s Flavia de Luce. USA Today

Delightful . . . a combination of Eloise and Sherlock Holmes. The Boston Globe

[Flavia] is as addictive as dark chocolate. Daily Mail

The plucky adolescent is terrifically entertaining the world s foremost braniac/chemist/sleuth/busybody/smarty-pants. Nobody can touch her in that category. The Seattle Times…mehr
