À propos de ce titre

An atmospheric debut novel set on the gritty streets of Victorian London, Some Danger Involved introduces detective Cyrus Barker and his assistant, Thomas Llewelyn, as they work to solve the gruesome murder of a young scholar in London's Jewish ghetto. When the eccentric and enigmatic Barker takes the case, he must hire an assistant, and out of all who answer an ad for a position with "some danger involved", he chooses downtrodden Llewelyn, a gutsy young man with a murky past.

As they inch ever closer to the shocking truth behind the murder, Llewelyn is drawn deeper and deeper into Barker's peculiar world of vigilante detective work, as well as the heart of London's teeming underworld.

Brimming with wit and unforgettable characters and steeped in authentic period detail, Some Danger Involved is a captivating novel that introduces an equally captivating duo.

Rich period detail, humor, tends at times to be too “educational” in effort to blend modern sensitivities with Victorian authenticity. Classic all—knowing mentor vs naive acolyte dealing with cultural issues of the era that are mirrored - or repeated - today. Ultimately satisfyingly dramatic and I consider one of best Victorian series in this style.

The reader is very good.
The story is interesting. But I just didn’t get fixed to the series, so I won’t join all books of it.
All in all a recommendation.

A resourceful guy the autor created here. I love this series - intelligent crime stories, well written and funny. It is a pitty that women are not portrayed as strong it would the normal nowadays. The rest of this historical crime story is rather modern. it just lacks this aspekt concerning women. Sadly.

Fanny, exiting and intelligent
