Acerca de esta escucha

After being viciously stabbed and left for dead, Hadrian Becket, Earl of Ravenhurst, struggles back to health only to discover he is cursed with a vexing ability to see visions he can't explain.

Terrified he may be going mad, he must keep the disturbing skill secret. But when it proves helpful in tracking his would-be killer, he has no choice but to embrace the newfound power. The retrocognition leads him to the house of a man recently deceased, where he encounters the clever and intriguing Miss Matilda Wren—who may be able to help him solve the many questions raised by the attack.

The death of Tilda's cousin has left her and her beloved grandmother in a precarious financial position when she discovers their investments have gone missing. Between the lost money and the mysterious Lord Ravenhurst's incessant queries, Tilda begins to wonder if her cousin may have been murdered. Desperate to determine what happened, she'll exhaust every possible line of inquiry to stave off destitution. For a price, Tilda agrees to work with the earl to uncover the truth, though she suspects he's hiding a dark secret.

As their investigation grows, so does the body count. Can they trust each other enough to expose the puppet master pulling the strings? Or will the villain's malevolent machinations end with more than a whisper of death?

I enjoy books that feature women who are ahead of their time. Women who dare to try and break barriers. This was a well-developed and well-written story that was engaging and entertaining. The main two characters were likable, and one looks forward to meeting them again as they continue to combine their talents in solving mysteries and crimes. And of course, their developing feelings for one another. The narration was perfection.

An Entertaining Historical Mystery

As an avid historical mystery reader, I am always looking for great new series in the genre, and this book not only checks all the boxes for me but promises much more to come. The characters are well developed, and the mystery engaging. Ravenhurst's "gift" or "curse" adds an interesting twist without dominating the investigation or the story. I cannot wait to spend more time with Raven, Wren, and their households.

I am always leary of multi-povs in the story. Add in two narrators, and I am doubly so, but the narration is perfection and brings these characters to life.

This was a well thought out story, and I enjoyed the paranormal intrigue. However, the male narrator’s audible swallowing throughout the story was extremely distracting, and I couldn’t wait for his part to be over. The female narration was done very well, and I would prefer to just listen to her. Maybe it’s just me, but I should not be able to hear a narrator swallowing in between sentences.

Great story but hard to deal with the narration

Wow! Loved this book and can’t wait to listen to more books in this series.

Not usually a fan of duel narration, but in this instance it was perfect!

I was enthralled by this book. Wonderful characters, an intriguing mystery, rich worldbuilding, and talented performers. I admit, the male voice was disconcerting at first, because his low, gravely voice made everything sound like a riveting ghost story, but I got used to it, and now wouldn't want Ravenhurst voiced by anyone else.

This story stood out for me, because I very much enjoyed how the female in this partnership was the investigator. So often, it is the male investigator with the quirky female sidekick, but not so in this story. Tilde is the professional (or trying to be in a male-dominated society), and Ravenhurst respects her and learns to play as her sidekick. The mystery was also so much more complex than it first appeared. It wasn't too complicated to follow, but it wasn't predictable, which I really appreciated! I'm also a huge fan of the hurt/comfort trope, so the way Ravenhurst's curse/gift causes him distress and causes Tilde to worry hit all the right notes for me.

I've already downloaded the sequel, and I'm hoping for much more of the same!
