Publisher's summary

Veronica must find and stop a devious killer when a group of old friends is targeted for death in this new adventure from the New York Times bestselling and Edgar Award-nominated author Deanna Raybourn.

Veronica’s natural-historian beau, Stoker, has been away in Bavaria for months and their relationship is at an impasse. But when Veronica shows up before him with his brother, Tiberius, Lord Templeton-Vane, he is lured back home by an intriguing job offer: preparing an iguanodon for a very special dinner party.

Tiberius has received a cryptic message—along with the obituaries of two recently deceased members of his old group of friends, the Seven Sinners—that he too should get his affairs in order. Realizing he is in grave danger but not knowing why, he plans a reunion party for the remaining Sinners at his family estate to lure the killer out while Veronica and Stoker investigate.

As the guests arrive and settle in, the evening’s events turn deadly. More clues come to light, leading Veronica, Stoker, and Tiberius to uncover a shared past among the Sinners that has led to the fatal present. But the truth might be far more sinister than what they were prepared for.

They keep getting better

First- Angele Masters did an excellent job narrating this one. I had issues with some of her narration in others in this series. She had a tendency to get very shrill. This one was perfect.

Second- the story was fast paced and intriguing. The long awaited reconciliation of many of the characters was timely and well written.

Another excellent book.

The excellent narrator brings the story to life. The plot twists and a little more of Merryweather were a good touch.

What a fantastic series!

I love this series. It is a great story with fun characters. The dialog is witty and well written. The narrator was so good. She made the book even better, which I can't imagine that was possible. Excelsior!

Fabulous series

This author never disappoints, Veronica Speedwell and Stoker are wonderful characters and the Victorian mysteries or investigations are compelling. There are some reoccurring minor characters to add interest. The reader is amazing and adds a lot to the entertainment.

Love Veronica’s growth

Loving her growth as a person with regards to her relationships, and I never tire of her ‘wool gathering’ moments or Stoker’s ‘Veronica, what are you doing’
