Aha! You swapped Secret Santa partners so it was secret after all!
I love this series, so I was really pleased to find this in my bag of goodies. Thank you!

Well, it didn't take me long to get round to reading this! Great read, really fun. Thanks again, Julia :-)
I'm going to hang on to this for the time being in case CaterinaAnna wants it.

Sorry about taking so long to journal these. Have limited the number of library books hanging around this month, and work not very busy, so hoping to get to reading them soon! Thank you for keeping them for me!

WILD RELEASE NOTES:

This reminded me of the Sherlock Holmes story, 'The Five Orange Pips'. I don't want to explain that because I don't think I can without spoilers, but you'll see why eventually.
As with all good series, the two detectives and their relationship are becoming more fleshed out (albeit not literally in the case of one of them) with each story and I didn't feel I had to go back to the first book (or the second - good job, because I didn't have it) to 'get' references.
Worth reading!

'There are some ceremonial robes,' said Bryant, removing the mahogany box and unlocking it. 'Perhaps you know what they represent.' He had a good idea himself, but he wanted confirmation.
'Oh, that's easy,' said Bella, removing the blue silk gown and holding it to the light. 'lt's William's guild robe. Peter has one as well. Most of the men in our family do.'
'What kind of guild does this represent?' He looked into the box and removed an ermine-trimmed collar. He expected to find a heavy gold collar somewhere, and here it was at the bottom of the box.


This book started off well with an acid attack at an art gallery and a strange murder in the Savoy, but after a while it started to drag. The victims were unsympathetic and the hotel receptionist who decided to do some investigations of her own was supremely irritating, so it was a disappointment compared to the other Bryant and May books I have read.

I can't remember if I've read this book before. I know I like the quirkiness of this author though.
