Romantic Times 4 1/2 stars on HUNTING SHADOWS "As always, the North Carolina-based mother and son who write under the pseudonym Charles Todd do a beautiful job with the period detail, making these books a nostalgic outing to England between the world wars."
Raleigh News & Observer "Readers who stick with the chase, though, should be enthralled, as Rutledge sorts through a fascinating portrait gallery of witnesses and suspects, most of whom aren't telling him the whole truth."
Wilmington News Journal "Of all the places where Inspector Ian Rutledge's Scotland Yard assignments have taken him, the desolate Fen country must surely be the eeriest. [This is an] excellent historical series."
New York Times Book Review on HUNTING SHADOWS "Elusive clues, suspense and excellent writing make for reading pleasure."
