ReviewsPraise for Why Kill the Innocent "The mystery highlights the circumscribed course of women's lives of the Regency era while exposing the rot that underlies the period's glitter.... Highly recommended for lovers of historical thrillers."--Library Journal, starred review Praise for When Falcons Fall "Harris' talent for character development, polished prose, and accurate, Regency-era details makes this eleventh or any of the previous 10 an easy starting point for newcomers to the Sebastian St. Cyr series...Psychologically atmospheric like Imogen Robertson's Westerman and Crowther mysteries, with the skewering social wit of Anne Perry's Charlotte and Thomas Pitt novels, this is historical mystery at its best."-- Booklist (starred review) "An engrossing tangled mystery and astonishing tale about a tragic search for identity. An excellent choice for St. Cyr fans and readers of historical mysteries."-- Library Journal "Strong...[an] intricate murder puzzle."-- Publishers Weekly Praise for the Sebastian St. Cyr Mystery Series "This riveting historical tale of tragedy and triumph, with its sly nods to Jane Austen and her characters, will enthrall you."--Sabrina Jeffries, New York Times bestselling author "Sebastian St. Cyr is everything you could want in a Regency-era nobleman-turned-death investigator: uncannily clever, unwaveringly reserved, and irresistibly sexy. The entire series is simply elegant."--Lisa Gardner, #1 New York Times bestselling author "Thoroughly enjoyable . . . Moody and atmospheric, exposing the dark underside of Regency London."--Deanna Raybourn, New York Times bestselling author, Praise for When Falcons Fall "Harris' talent for character development, polished prose, and accurate, Regency-era details makes this eleventh or any of the previous 10 an easy starting point for newcomers to the Sebastian St. Cyr series...Psychologically atmospheric like Imogen Robertson's Westerman and Crowther mysteries, with the skewering social wit of Anne Perry's Charlotte and Thomas Pitt novels, this is historical mystery at its best."-- Booklist (starred review) "An engrossing tangled mystery and astonishing tale about a tragic search for identity.
