About the Author:
Review:
John Gardner (1925-2007) was one of the world's premier thriller writers, and published more than forty novels, many of which have been bestsellers. Among Gardner's works are sixteen books in the legendary James Bond series, including Win, Lose, or Die and Never Send Flowers; he also wrote six books featuring Big Herbie Kruger, including Confessor and Maestro, which was a New York Times Book of the Year. A graduate of Cambridge University who did his postgraduate work at Oxford, he lived in Hampshire. Gardner had variously been a stage magician, an officer in the Royal Marines, a theatrical journalist, a lecturer in Shakespearean production, and a priest in the Church of England.
“Brilliant. Gardner may prove to be the author who finally equals Conan Doyle.” (The Omaha Metro )
“Moriarty holds sway with all the ruthless guile, power, and pomp you’d expect from a gaslight era godfather.” (Los Angeles Times )
“A tale to make The Godfather seem tame.” (Charleston Evening Post )
“An excellent tale of the dark side of London during the time of Sherlock Holmes.” (New York Herald Tribune )
“Superb.” (St. Louis Post-Dispatch )
