Praise for Death’s Door

“Filled with action and adventure…. A fine novel with its foot firmly planted in reality.”
—Ted Hertel, Deadly Pleasures Mystery Magazine

“James Benn has managed to not only write a first rate mystery, but also convey very accurately an era from history. Benn’s Billy Boyle mysteries are always entertaining, filled with riveting characters, and beautifully plotted stories…. Benn’s research is admirable and the expert way in which he uses this historical data to tell a riveting story is brilliant. The story has the feel of an old time adventure story, and Benn’s marvelous dialogue brings the characters to life… I dare you not to read the other six novels. Historical mysteries just don’t get any better than this.”
