A work of great skill and sympathy
Peter Ackroyd, The Times
Colourful without being sensationalist, the result is compelling
Andrew Holgate, Sunday Times
Brilliant
Christopher Hirst, Independent
Excellent...an impressively strong sense of 19th-century poverty seems to ooze from its pages and the details are fascinating
Toby Clements, Daily Telegraph
Engrossing...Wise exposes an entire "resurrection community" in London's underworld and shows how "The Italian Boy case" captured the public imagination
Ian Pindar, Guardian
