It was a little bit longer to read than I thought with all this school reading, but I did it guys.
I love Sherlock Holmes mysteries. Let me start there. They are waht got me into reading in the first place. If you have a child that does not like reading, hand them a Holmes book. Sir Arthur Conan Doyle will forever be the true Sherlock but Caleb Carr is a great predecessor.
It did not feel like a forced attempt to write like Sir Arthur Conan Doyle. His writing fit perfectly and the story of the Italian Secretary was a very exciting adventure. I am glad I picked it up and I am even more excited that he is going to hopefully come out with more stories.
Caleb Carr is also the author of his own detective mysteries and they are The Alienist
