Reviews for Goodnight Sweet Prince
In this excellent novel, Dickinson weaves a tale of blackmail and murder among the royals late in Victoria's reign... [his] knowledge of the arts, history and literature is nothing if not exhaustive, and adds enormously to the overall background... One hopes to see more of Lord Powerscourt and his friends in the near future.
