Resurrection Row

I am really enjoying the Charlotte and Pitt series - the mixture of social conscience and crime. They are both lovable characters. I really enjoy Aunt Vespasia's role in Perry's books, she seems to be someone I would rather enjoy knowing. A great read, for those who haven't read these in order, I would highly suggest it, I look forward to seeing what Charlotte, Emily, Dominic and the rest are up to in each novel.

This book was so good I just couldn't put it down. So many bodies, so little graves. I enjoy Thomas and Charlotte so much. He doesn't let the "upper crust" get the best of him and he tries to put his personal feelings behind when he is trying to solve a murder plot. I like the way Thomas and Charlotte talk to each other and she helps him see things in a different way. I enjoyed the plot and for the first time I guessed who the murderer was (only because of a clue read in the linees). I like the fact that the series goes along as their lives do and their daughter is growing and their family is moving along also. I was just a little bit disappointed that there wasn't more about Emily's new son,especially since Dominic was someone they both knew. But that is so small its hardly worth mentioning.

I read this book cover to cover in a span of about two days. I love the details about Victorian England. The characters of Thomas and Charlotte are easily liked and in between each book I wonder what is new with them. The books are easy to read and are great for holidays and weekends!

This is the fourth in the Thomas and Charlotte Pitt series and is well up to Anne Perry's usual high standard! This one has a particularly ingenious plot and I was delighted to see that the interesting and mildly eccentric Aunt Vespasia is back again. She figured in the previous book, Paragon Walk. Charlotte's brother-in-law, Dominic, figures prominently in this book also.
