3.5 Stars really.. 
 The Good: 
 The mystery is intriguing. It feels like there is more to the story then what can be brought out in the first book and the words and prose are good. 
 I like Will's character and the 1871 setting it takes place in has been done very cleverly.. 
 The little bits that nagged me: 
 Im not a major fan of the name Tiki.. IN fact it reminds me of.. well a Tiki.. 
 And that just does not fit in 1871 England.. 
 So, I suppose if we overlook the dreadful nickname her 'parents' came up with, we get left with a gang of streetrats queue Oliver Twist.. 
 They try to survive and keep the youngest fed..But she somehow manages to get into Buckingham palace and snatches the piece of jewellery that starts this whole mess. 
 What irk's me is that this was way to easy. But hey ill go with it ehh.. 
 Overall: 
 The rest of the story involves chases and some breakthroughs in identities.. I did love that, i think they where cleverly done and it did spark between the 2 main characters so that made up for the little niggly (is that even word?) bits.. 
 All that said, it will be enough to get me to read the next book and I truly hope I was right and the plots will thicken to give this series with so much potential more oompf.. 
 It is most definitely more toward a younger audience in my opinion ;)
