Address (Davis) - Book Reviews

Book Reviews
A delicious tale of love, lies and madness.
People Magazine

[C]ompelling, historically minded fiction with unexpected — and entertaining — twists and turns…the novel delights.
Ms. Magazine

Lively and detail rich…with a thread of mystery that makes it easy to enjoy, hard to put down.
Family Circle

Spanning over 100 years, Fiona Davis’ mystery is packed with deceit.
Us Weekly
 
Davis overlays the two histories beautifully.… But while the setting is captivating, the facts…tend toward the melodramatic. Readers interested in Gilded Age New York will appreciate this light historical drama, but predictable moments and a convenient resolution will leave others wanting.
Publishers Weekly


With her nimble writing style, Davis makes pithy commentary on gender, social and economic inequality in both eras.… This thought-provoking book makes you wonder what Edith Wharton would have made of these Camdens and pseudo-Camdens. Thankfully, Davis is here to tell us.
BookPage


Though her characters lack depth…the historical asides…are fun to read. The writing is only serviceable, but this jam-packed narrative unfolds at a brisk clip — even if, in the end, the convoluted plot turns have a dizzying effect.
