This must be my week for prequels, truth be told...I love them. Deep insight into the beginnings of characters we've come to adore...The Mysterious Case of Mr. Strangeway is one of these adored insight giving story lines.In The Mysterious Case of Mr. Strangeway we meet the young Cherry St. Croix and she is about to take her very first collection. Mr. Strangeway has apparently gained some debt but the situation behind his circumstances aren't quite what they seem.A wonderful adventure, and introduction into the fabulous world of Cherry St. Croix before she learned the ropes and lots of background into a series I fervently follow...what else could you ask for? Life and death chases into the dregs of London, it has that too. The Mysterious Case of Mr. Strangeway is a must read for all The St. Croix Chronicles fans but if you want an introduction into this wonderful series it is also a great place to start.A fast paced, shorter novel made this a wonderful afternoon read.I received this ARC copy of The Mysterious Case of Mr. Strangeway from Carina Press in exchange for a honest review.
