Praise for The Price of Murder "Alexander's got it all: a heroic central figure, a setting that both fascinates and appalls, and a gift for concocting plots that weave in and out of social classes. Also, unlike many writers in this genre, who lay on historical details with a trowel, Alexander brings Georgian England alive with facts fitting the acting. Alexander's detective is a real-life one.This fact-based device gives the novels a sort of Nero Wolfe and Archie Goodwin feel."-- Booklist (starred review) "Enjoyable."-- Publishers Weekly "An outstanding historical."-- Library Journal More Praise for the Sir John Fielding Mysteries "Bruce Alexander has mastered the uncommon knack of deftly capturing a period-perfect historical time without endangering the liveliness of the story with excessive detail."-- Los Angeles Times "History has a thrilling way of hitting home in Bruce Alexander's Georgian mysteries.

"-- The New York Times "Charles Dickens and Arthur Conan Doyle must be beaming down from literary heaven at Bruce Alexander's splendid series. [His] eye for period detail is sharp and subtle; he bring historic England back to life in layers."-- Chicago Tribune.
