Lost and Gone Forever: A Novel of Scotland Yard's Murder Squad
Grecian does not waste time moving the action along, although the lengthy epigraphs before each section are distracting. The gritty descriptions of Victorian London are a major highlight of the series, making this a solid choice for fans of the time period. [See Prepub Alert, 11/15/15.]
PREMIUM
The Harvest Man
This book is as laden with gory details as the other books in the series—not for the squeamish. However, fans of the earlier works (The Devil's Workshop) are sure to want to follow the story.

The Devil's Workshop
Grecian has penned the Murder Squad's (The Yard; The Black Country) best outing yet! Devotees are sure to be delighted, but Grecian's latest would also make a satisfying introduction to the series.
