Kirkus Reviews on The Empress of IndiaBrings fin de siecle Europe to brilliant life...The action veers and twists like a contemporary thriller." -"Booklist" on "The Great Game""Wit, humor, plausibility, and interesting characters in an involved and involving plot. Whether or not you savor the canon, you might want to venture into Moriarty territory." -Mystery News
"A deft comic touch in his presentation of Holmes as an arrogant meddler, not half as clever as he thinks he is. The pace of these stories is kept up throughout, and Kurland even finds space to make some observations about social class and privilege in 19th century London." --Crime Fiction Lover
"A touch of class about this one, full of heady Victorian atmosphere and brilliant characters, including a refugee from Bram Stoker's Dracula... Excellent." --Books Monthly
"A very good book... For people wanting to read something a little different I d also suggest the other books in the Moriarty series. The Professor is very much like Holmes, and in many ways surpasses him as a more interesting character whose complicated nature proves to be as enticing as ever." --Pissed Off Geek

Reseña del editor:
Moriarty is awaiting trial for murder when Queen Victoria's grandson mysteriously disappears. In exchange for his release and the murder charges (of which he's innocent) being dropped, the so-called "Napoleon of Crime" must track down the missing prince and find out who is behind his disappearance and the brutal murders left in his wake.
