Reviews

The tone is Homesian to the last detail, with the reader swept along to a satisfying ending. A fine addition to the Holmes canon. -Library Journal

The [familiar] tale seems fresher and deeper, thanks both to the invigorating presence of Holmes and Vernier and to the wealth of marvelous detail, especially on the Paris Opera House itself. -Booklist
