This book is so good I am looking forward to more from this series I am really looking forward to it. I always love the characters especially Christopher and Tom their friendship is one of the best aspects of this series for one Tom is always there to make sure Christopher does not get himself killed in the situations he not always by his own fault situations he gets himself into. I love Christopher for how his mind works he solves things other things happen and he is always in the thick of so many other things. The other characters are interesting as well Lord Ashcombe is fun to read about as was the King never a dull moment when he is around. I loved the plot it starts with an incident where Christopher sets a carriage on fire which is an accident by the way other things happen and Christopher and company are on their way to solving riddles and saving the King also with the way it ended poor Bridget looking forward to where the story will go from here.
