These novels are great detective tales, but they're full of so much fantastic background information too..cakes, coffee, obscure symbolism, Freud, Jewish history, art, women's rights, fashion,music, Freemasonry, language, medicine.......and of course we continue to observe the abiding friendship of two very different men who thrive by finding their commonality. If you like a tale to meander delightfully these books are for you

a great story and much more !

Another great story from Frank Tallis. I love the detailed description of fin de siècle Vienna. The plot is ingenious and the characters like old friends. I found the narrator better on this book than the last one. Keep 'em coming, Frank.
