Swing, Swing Together: A Sergeant Cribb Mystery

Rating:
Summary: Charming and Delightful!
Review: I really am enjoying the Cribb-Thackery series, and this book has the added charm of a certain young lady by the Name of Harriet Shaw. This is a wonderful Victorian series, and this book is a pure delight. It connects The book "Three Men in a Boat" and Jack-the-Ripper since these two things were all the talk of the people in 1889. We are introduced to punting on the Thames, Oxford and Teacher's school as it was in England back then. Cribb is his usual irascible self, and Thackery is still long-suffering and ponderous. I am truly sorry that Peter Lovesey has only one more book left in this enjoyable series. Each one has been wonderful and has introduced me to another aspect of Victorian life that I have never gotten in any other Victorian series. And each one has been a cracking good mystery as well.
