This book was really well written. But I didn't enjoy it as much as some. Reading about politicking and machinations like the ones that happen in this book make me sick toy stomach. Not sure if I'll be able to read the other two in the series or not. 

It's definitely not the fault of the writing. I quite like the way Jo Walton writes. It's my queasiness at the subject matter.

In an alternate post-World War II London in which an upper-crust political group has overthrown Churchill and negotiated peace with Hitler, Lucy, ostracized since her marriage to a Jewish man, is unexpectedly invited to a family gathering only to find her husband framed for a ritualistic murder. Reprint.
