A stunning detective story from the winner of the World Illustration Award ** OBSERVER GRAPHIC NOVEL OF THE MONTH Pick for March** 'Could not be more rich or more beautiful if it tried' OBSERVER In this stunning reimagining of a nineteenth-century Russian crime thriller from the world of Dostoevsky, Carol Adlam presents Charlie Fox, stunt journalist, magician, liar and thief, who reluctantly returns to her hometown of Nowheregrad to investigate the murder of Elena Ruslanova, daughter of a fabulously wealthy glass manufacturer. In Nowheregrad Charlie finds herself caught up in a multi-layered story that is told through the richly varied visual devices of the time. With the unwitting assistance of her lover, Netochka, Charlie unravels the mystery of the Bobrov family, only to face the truth about herself. Exquisitely drawn and compellingly told, Adlam's complex, elegant narrative brings to life the lost legacies of early crime fiction and the first women journalists and detectives. **A GUARDIAN GRAPHIC NOVEL OF THE YEAR**

Nice suit great value
Size: Medium, Color: Light Blue, Size: Medium, Color: Light Blue
Got this suit for my son to wear to a wedding. It arrived a day or two then the except it delivery. I was concerned if it would fit because of the size chart. He is tall and skinny so I got the medium. When he tried it on it fit him perfectly except the waist was a tad too big but with a belt everything worked. I took it to the cleaned to have them press it. Great value, nice quality material, light weight and comfortable for spring/summer events. The wedding was outdoors. He looked very handsome unit. Was very pleased.

Not Seersucker, more a Blue pinstriped suit.
Size: XX-Large, Color: Blue
This is not Seersucker!! Granted the suit will be cool in summer and looks good, but material is a blend. The pants are very large, while the top fits perfectly. I’d go with a regular cut, not slim for better fit. But for the price, no complaints.

Great Suit for Hard to Fit Guys
Size: X-Large, Color: Light Grey, Size: X-Large, Color: Light Grey
This fit my husband perfectly. The elastic in the waistband is great, he was very comfortable all day. The only complaint is that the material is a little thin.

Sharp as A Tack.
Size: Medium, Color: Light Grey
This seersucker pinstripe suit is an excellent choice for warmer weather events like spring weddings, prom, or a summer party. The lightweight fabric is highly breathable, keeping you cool while still looking completely polished and sharp. The slim-fit tailoring gives it a modern silhouette, and the light grey pinstripe has a great classic look. It feels well-constructed but remains perfectly comfortable for hours of socializing. It’s a wonderful option if you want a stylish, sophisticated look that beats the heat!
