The Philadelphia Item says: This book is quite up to the level of the high standard which Mr. Hume has set for himself in 'The Mystery of a Hansom Cab' and 'The Rainbow Feather.' It is a brilliant, stirring adventure, showing the author's prodigious inventiveness, his well of imagination never running dry.

The Nashville American says: The plot is intricate with mystery and probability neatly dovetailed and the solution is a series of surprises skillfully retarded to whet the interest of the reader. It is excellently written and the denouement so skillfully concealed that one's interest and curiosity are kept on edge till the very last. It will certainly be a popular book with a very large class of readers.

The Philadelphia Item says: It is a very clever story, which runs on smoothly from start to finish, holding the reader's interest--as do every solitary one of the Hume stories, to the very last sentence. Everybody who likes good detective fiction or who has read Mr. Hume before should not miss this excellent story.
