The start is quite sad and emotional So I m warning you it’s probably not for late night reads

A mixture of Sherlock Holmes and The Greatest Showman. Brilliant mystery book with an insight into Victorian freak shows.

It was hard to put the book down. It was really exciting and I just did not know what was going to happen next. Some bits were a bit creepy but that all added to the suspense. I liked the main character, Wild Boy, and also his partner, Clarissa. Would I recommend it... Certainly.

Other than the Harry Potter books that I have read, this is probably my favourite book. It is full of mistery, crime, adventure and anything else to do with murder stories. If any younger readers are reading this text, I would not recommend you to read this. I reccon that this book should be rated for a 10-12year old.

Really cool - it's good for 8 year olds and above. It is murderous and mysterious and I agree if you like Sherlock Holmes you will like this book.

It is very appealing for fans of Sherlock Holmes because it has a very big murder mystery to be solved
