This third in a Victorian mystery series features Inspector Bell and Crimean nurse Gemma who are drawn into a child’s murder. I read book 2 but new readers could easily jump in. I liked the more balanced points of view and overall better pacing of this book than the last. Some of the history lessons went long but at least they were interesting. If you’ve read 1 or 2 and aren’t sure if you want to continue, I recommend keeping the series.

Just when I thought this series could not get any better, Murder at the foundling hospital comes my way!

A great addition to the Tate and Bell mystery series, so twisted and gripping it is really difficult to put it down.

What to do with that wide array of possible culprits? I have changed my mind several times but still could not find the perpetrator out until the very end.

The couple dynamics is so well balanced and the plot so well thought out that I was constantly wondering what was going to happen and to try and solve the puzzle.

I cannot wait to see what the next book has in store for Gemma and Inspector Bell!

I have received an advance copy for free and I am leaving this review voluntarily, thanks to the author for it.

I have read all the books in the Hands of Time series and all of the books in the Wonderland series, because I totally love this author. This book .didn't let me down either, both the story and characters are well done. The novel got me hooked immediately with the beginning where a workman finds a body and realised it was a murder. After that I had to read it until I had finished it. Highly recommended.
