Who Slays the Wicked by C.S. Harris
4.0
I love this series and wait eagerly for the next book. I thought this one started a little slow, but I found myself enjoying the story about one-third of the way in. As per usual, I didn't foresee the end result, but it was fun getting there.
I also want to thank Ms. Harris for the historical references scattered throughout the book. Most come from Hero, but I was especially struck by the origin of Seven Dials. I've read a lot of Regency and Victorian historical books and never has anyone explained that reference.
I would like to see more of Hero and a little more about the overarching mystery of Sebastian's background. I thought the fortune-teller was doing foreshadowing, but then nothing more was mentioned. Still, an excellent read if you like historical murder mysteries.
