A wonderful story captured by the author, full of mystery and triumph. Just keeping uou on your toes every chapter, awaiting something new. Sophie being a brave and young woman, and Lil a dramatic and exciting woman trying to find Joe captured by Molloy and his group of thugs, the fraternitas wanting the Almanac to create the skyfire which could put the whole of Coney Island in danger!

It is one of the best fiction mysteries that I have read. However, I can't choose a favourite character as there are two special ones in my mind. Nevertheless, I would definitely recommend it.

This book is fiction, however it is based on real life monuments and events. Personally, my favourite character was Lil. This is because she is the perfect combination of smart, savvy and down to earth. I would definitely recommend this book as it is extremely enthralling and I was reading this book 24/7. Honestly, if I could, I would give this book a million stars. A humongous thank you to Katherine Woodford and Karl James Mountford, for their collaboration on this amazing book and I hope to read more more books in this series.

It was a really good book, part of a series. The characters are loveable and creative. You do need to read the other books first though, so it makes more sense!

This was a fiction book. I like this book but it took a long time too read for me. I don't know who was my favourite character.

OMG. Where should I start? This is the most amazing book I have ever read. There will be no other book like it. My favourite character was Lil, because she is so smart and pretty, but also, I like Sophie. She is so cunning (in a good, positive way) and I feel really sorry for her, for having no family. I would definitely definitely definitely recommend this book to all of you who haven't read it! And not just this book. The whole series of Sinclair's Mysteries, and Taylor and Rose secret agents, by the same author. It's a wonderful series, and there is so much to say about it, but it's just spectacular. I urge you to read it. It's a book packed with mystery, suspense and murder-mystery, but also love and friendship. I won't give any spoilers but, it is set in the early 1900s, and I love books in this London era as they are so enchanting, and I would love to experience the new women's dresses, the smell of caramel and tingling smell of lavender and orange in the shop, and the big mansions, and dinner parties. It's so mesmerising. The series is about 2 young girls who are detectives Sophie and Lil (or Lillian-her full name), and trying to save London from a notorious criminal, The Baron, with the help with their other 2 friends, Joe and Billy. It's a fun-packed adventure, and if you love books in this century, go to your local library and rummage for these books. They are defo worthy of reading!!!

This book made me feel really happy because in the end they are reunited and I thought that this was a really good end to a story because it was all harmony and it set it up for there later grown up lives.I thought the author did a really good job of capturing their emotions and writing them down.I liked Anna the best because she was so curious about Lil and she refused to just give up on it.

Absolutely brilliant, I've read all the previous books, the first four Sinclair's Mysteries and the first three Taylor & Rose. They are all fantastical, full of mystery and suprise at every turn of a page, I am a little sad that the series has come to an end with this final thrilling book.

This book is definitely the best in the series! It had so many plot twists and you were on the edge of your seat for the whole book. In this book Sophie, Lil, and the rest of their friends are travelling to New York to save their friend Joe, who is in the clutches of the Fraternitas Draconum, an evil society set on waging wars. They encounter deadly plots, on both the Thalassa and in New York itself. They must attempt to outwit the Fraternitas, for many lives are at risk... My favourite character was Sophie because she made so many great plans. I would recommend it if you like adventure, mystery and historical fiction books, though I would recommend reading the other books in the series first.

I have really enjoyed this series and am sad that I have finished them! My favourite character was Sophie Taylor because she is kind, considerate and very clever. I would recommend this book 5 stars to anyone who enjoys mystery stories, adventure and more than a little bit of crime!
