What the critics say
"Andrew Taylor’s historical crime novels have proved a benchmark for the genre, and The Fire Court is no exception. Cunningly plotted and movingly written, it’s a fascinating portrait of a city, and its people, recovering from trauma." (Mick Herron, bestselling author of Slow Horses)
"This is how historical crime should be written, with rich authenticity underpinning a twisting plot." (The Times)
"Marwood and Lovett’s search for a killer in the sooty streets of 1660s London is an atmospheric pleasure, full of twists and memorable characters." (The Times)
