This is a good old fashion mystery & longer than a lot of others I've read.  No ghosts, no aliens, no silliness, no sex, no foul language, etc.  This is a story completely believable.  I must admit, when reading the first couple of chapters I almost deleted the book from my Kindle.  But then the book started unfolding & it was hard to put down. I'm so glad I read it, so don't get discouraged at the beginning.  It has mystery, who done it, gambling, fortune, poverty, love, anger, sadness, happiness, etc.  Just the right mixture of everything, like life basically could be, & maybe has been for a few people. It's in the time of no airplanes, & the mode of transportation is ship, rail or carriage.  For those of you that like a clean book, this is a must read.
