Not quite as good as his first one (The Alienist) but Carr still wrote a thoroughly enjoyable sequel. Reaffirming the 1890s as one of my favorite time periods, I love how he weaves in the history, politics, and peoples of the time in with such dark mysteries and discoveries. I loved that it focused on a woman as the villain, given that was so unheard of at the time. I really enjoyed it and gave it another four stars!
