Josh Lanyon, as always, delivers. That's what I have grown to expect of his books and that's what he does with this.

The clash of an effeminate and a manly homosexual man during the roaring twenties, a background quite meticulously researched and a gentle ghost story--all perfectly meshed into this wonderful tale.

My only criticism, which has become a regular one for some of the best authors I read, is its short length. I wanted to stay with Julian and David for the length of a novel. ...more

Well, that was an odd ending.

What a little jewel! I really liked Julien Deveraux. David Flynn was an interesting character, very well developed and not the usual romantic lead. And the mystery, gah, 99.9 percent of the time I can tell who has done it, but this time I wasn't able to recognize them before it was obvious. Not that the plot wasn't perfectly logical and carefully constructed, but Mr. Lanyon was sneaky and tricked me. I am usually not that easily tricked.
I loved it! ...more

I struggled to get into this one; in fact, I attempted to start it a few times. I'm so glad I persevered. Near perfect writing. A great, engaging storyline. Interesting characters. But then it ends! I know to expect quick, wrapped up in a few pages conclusions from Josh's work, but that doesn't mean I have to like them. I felt especially let down by this one. ...more
