“The pages fly . . . Once again we’re in the capable hands of [the]
reigning monarch of the Victorian mystery.”—People (Page-turner of
the Week)
“Funeral in Blue captures and retains the reader’s undivided
attention. . . . The plot is intriguing on its own, but it becomes
fascinating as Perry, with each new avenue of the investigation,
seamlessly explores the nature of truth and the price at which it
comes.”—The Virginian Pilot
“Perry’s historical mysteries suggestively peel away layer after
layer of Victorian respectability until the underlying social evils
of a gilded era are exposed in all their naked truth.”—The New York
Times Book Review
“An old-style private eye novel—and an extremely good one . . . No
one writes more elegantly than Perry, nor better conjures up the
rich and colorful tapestry of London in the Victorian era.”—The
Plain Dealer
“Highly recommended . . . another gripping Victorian
spellbinder.”—Library Journal
