4.0 out of 5 stars
Another good read, with caveats,
By Mary "Commuter" (San Francisco) - See all my reviews
Amazon Verified Purchase(What's this?)
This review is from: The Orange-Yellow Diamond (Kindle Edition)
Set in London in the early 1900's, a good mystery with likable characters. A caution however, there is stereotyping of multiple ethnic groups.
