The Night Calls

Good book, in a very good shape, quickly sent. Thank you! The Night Calls (Murder Rooms 2)The Night Calls (Murder Rooms 2)

Once again David Pirie has given us a winner: complex plotting, rich detail, characters who are real, beautiful writing. As you follow Doyle and Bell through the misty streets of old Edinburgh, it is quite possible to forget that you are not actually there. In "The Night Calls", Doyle has begun to open the darkest, most frightening of his "Murder Rooms", and the reader is drawn into all the fear, frustration, pain, and failure, as well as the successes, of that awful year in Doyle's life. A warning: "The Night Calls" and "The Patient's Eyes" are intertwined in some ways - a tidbit here, a phrase there - and you may find yourself picking up and enjoying "The Patient's Eyes" once again, as I did the moment I finished "The Night Calls". I hope Pirie intends to open every one of Doyle's "Murder Rooms"!

The story begins in 1898, and flashes back to: 1878. Narrated by Arthur Conan Doyle, Pirie addressesseveral topical issues; including: the emerging Suffragette movement and sexually transmitted diseases.

another in the series of books about Arthur Conan Doyle and his mentor Dr Bell. Dark, brooding and filled with labyrinthine scenarios. I loved it
