Elly Griffiths is one of my favourite authors and I look forward to her Ruth Galloway novels. The Stephens and Mephisto series nearly passed me by and I think I only came across them whilst checking out when the next Ruth Galloway was to be published.

Whilst each of the three Mephisto and Stephens novels can be read as standalone books I recommend that they are read in order so that the reader gets a full appreciation of the main characters as more details about them and their backstory is revealed with each subsequent novel.

Murderers. magicians, gypsies and Queen Elizabeth - this books rocks along at a decent clip.

Its hard to imagine a time where TV was new and and flying long distance was the exception rather than the rule but Elly Griffiths peppers these novels with enough historical detail to make the reader quite nostalgic......
