Exciting insights into British society of the late 19th cent.

Perry has in her exciting crime novels fascinating insights into the London of the Victorian era - both in the lives of the privileged upper classes with the respective positions and roles of men and women, the existence of their domestic workers as well as in the indescribable poverty of ordinary people in the rookeries. Exciting, relaxing yet instructive read. A good idea is to enter with Case 1: The Cater Street Hangman
