“Holton’s signature tongue-in-cheek style shines, pairing dry wit with ludicrous situations to excellent effect. Alice and Daniel’s banter is a particular highlight, and their tender connection helps to ground all the action. This may be Holton’s best yet.” 

Publishers Weekly, starred review

"Mix Julia Quinn at her musical recital best with Tuesday Next, Stardust, and Get Smart ... Witty, deeply clever, and read-it-like-you-just-robbed-some-pirates fast."

Library Journal, starred review

"The Secret Service is a caper of the highest order. If you've read India Holton, prepare for more of everything you love: magic, mayhem, literary misquotes, and two misfits falling in love. If you haven't...hold on to your parachute hat."

Alix E. Harrow, author of The Ten Thousand Doors of January 

“A comedic romance with maximum vibes”

Kirkus Reviews 

“Oh my giddy heart! The Secret Service of Tea and Treason is brilliantly bonkers, romping fun—sleuthing shenanigans, explosive action, and most of all, radiant, romantic joy. I adored every page.”

Chloe Liese, author of Two Wrongs Make a Right 

“With moments of high comedy and incredible sweetness, a gazillion more uniquely Holton-esque shenanigans, and a wonderful neurodivergent heroine to boot, The Secret Service of Tea and Treason is joyous, marvellous fun.”

Sangu Mandanna, author of The Very Secret Society of Irregular Witches

“The Secret Service of Tea and Treason was everything I wanted and everything I didn’t know I needed. No one writes like India Holton–and I have never met a more  immersive read! This Victorian romcom absolutely sparkles! It was tenderly strong, hilariously romantic, and deliciously steamy. A pitch perfect addition to this fantastical series!”

Sarah Adams, author of The Cheat Sheet
