One of the best things about this book, is that it is historical, but cant be outdated. For instance if you read a cozy set in the 1980s technology has really changed.

This book is set right after the French and Indian War, when what the USA was just colonies of England. It is outside of Boston. The sleuthing techniques are on par with the present day knowledge of science, and the main characters are creative, smart and likable.

There are many many characters beside the main leads, and even those characters are distinguishable from each other, and not in the modern technique of giving them quirky traits.

This book would appeal to those who love history or who are sick of the typical cozy stereo-types. This is a very talented and experienced writer, who can spin a story.
