Reviews
"This clever mystery is further proof that Siciliano is one of the best contemporary pasticheurs." --Publishers Weekly Starred Review "The spirit and tone of the classic Holmes adventure are alive and well in this instalment. A seemingly impossible problem, clever deductions, the Victorian country house, danger, and hidden treasures are all present here, and told with the same tone, pacing, and slight sense of amazement that Watson's original narrations always brought.If you are a Holmes fan looking for some new adventures with the Great Detective, THE VENERABLE TIGER is one to pick up!" -The Crime Review
