Who killed "Tom Pilchard"?

There's a touch of Holmes and Watson in John Grey and Tom Byrd.

Diana Gabaldon pens another decent mystery and the characters are fun to visit with. It all wraps up neatly with little ongoing consequence, as can be expected in between-the-novels stories like this.

One for the fans. If you are, you'll probably enjoy it.

2.75 star. I didn’t care about the overall mystery for this story to begin with. I also didn’t like the conclusion to the mystery and ending of the story either. What happened to Anne Thackeray also felt anti-climatic and we find out what happened to her through exposition of events that occurred off screen and I didn’t care for that.

Another great story with Lord John, and I loved this story, not knowing if it was supernatural or human in nature!
