Review:
An exuberant plot and dialogue that hums with Elizabethan slang, profanity and wit ...Clements delivers a bawdy, engaging romp of book. The Times Sixteenth-century London comes alive in all its tawdriness. Daily Mail A world spiced with delicious characters ... The novel wears its historical learning lightly, and Clements seasons it with romance and humour. Mail on Sunday Enjoyable, bloody and brutish. Guardian
