Flavia de Luce is an eleven-year-old Sherlock Holmes with a
predilection for the dark side of rural crime and a hobby of poisons.
This will be the first in what promises to be an utterly original and
delicious series. Adult preoccupations and values may confront Flavia,
but they do not greatly impress her; by the story's end, the reader has
to agree. -Laurie R. King

Dickinson's first Inspector Pibble story (originally published as The Glass-Sided Ants' Nest) is a work of true genius, creating a universe and a crime that are both bizarre yet utterly believable: the remnant of a Stone-Age New Guinean tribe shifted to a London boarding house. This is crime fiction as anthropological and psychological exploration: thoughtful, witty, and encompassing the very essence of British quirkiness. -Laurie R. King
