India and Matt thought all their problems would come to an end once they found Chronos. But the watch magician brings with him as many questions as answers, and a load of trouble. To fix Matt's magic watch, they must find an old diary that once belonged to a doctor magician murdered decades ago. The hunt drags them into a sordid mystery involving two of London's craft guilds. With old and new enemies determined to stop them, and long-held secrets unearthed, Matt and India must work together better than ever.

India Steele is desperate. Her father is dead, her fiancé took her inheritance, and no one will employ her, despite years working for her watchmaker father. Indeed, the other London watchmakers seem frightened of her. Alone, poor, and at the end of her tether, India takes employment with the only person who’ll accept her–an enigmatic and mysterious man from America. A man who possesses a strange watch that rejuvenates him when he’s ill.

loved the development of Leah and the power of Muirwood. It resonates with me the power of an oath and what true love and loyalty can accomplish.

Then she’s chosen to assist in establishing the new abbey of Muirwood, now the site of a castle in the swampy Bearden Muir.

I miss my Ransom
Reviewed: 08-09-22
I just finished the last in this book series and already I miss my Lord Ransom. Ingeniously crafted through the writings of Jeff Wheeler, Ransom and Claire became an integral part of my decompression time driving home after work. I couldn't wait to listen daily. A well written action packed, intriguing, magical, and historical love story, it leaves the reader wanting for nothing no matter their age. Looking forward to the next series.

Love the performance. The narrator does an excellent job with speed, pitch, and tone variations to characters. The writer provides excellent depiction of scenery, actions, and feelings of characters. Can't wait for the final book!

Intriguing story with a somewhat predictable plot with extra twists to keep you guessing who did what and who is the real liar.

good storyline, nice twist at end
Reviewed: 08-26-21
the dichotomy between the main characters develops well with a suspenseful and interesting twist at the end. the performance was lacking some emotions and the rate of speech on the one character sometimes makes it difficult to understand what is being said.

Story4 out of 5 stars 255
Quantum physicist Matt Bronik is suffering from strange, violent seizures that medical science seems powerless to explain - much to the consternation of his wife, Brigid. Matt doesn't think these fits could be related to his research, which he has always described as benign and esoteric. That, it turns out, is not quite true: Matt has been prodding the mysteries of the quantum universe, with terrible repercussions for his health. And perhaps even for humanity as a whole.

Reviewed: 10-25-20
This was an interesting concept to the story at the beginning. Written slightly above average. I enjoyed the dual readers to give more diversity to the characters. The ending was an interesting twist...if you dont pay attention to the story. otherwise you may guess it before the ending. B+

Decent storyline / fair reader

The storyline was decent, a few plot twist at the end that could have been developed better to make it more suspenseful. Reader left much to be desired in her lack of voice inflection, emotions, or changes in characters.
