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.

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.

They keep getting better

The story is engaging and always entertaining. The author’s knowledge of Lepidoptera and her descriptions of butterflies is amazing. I’m looking forward the next book. As always the narrator is fantastic.

Fabulous story

I was so annoyed with the last book because it was going the way of a soap opera. Well, Ms. Raybourn moved the action forward by 6 months and Voila! Our favorite couple has a chance to resolve their problems. And the story is interesting, complex, and kept me guessing!

I do like Angela Masters’ narration. However, in the beginning of the series, Tiberius was hardly ever in evidence, so a distinct voice for him wasn’t really needed. In this one, he’s a major character, but his voice is almost the same as Stoker’s. I hope she can change his voice a bit if Tiberius is going to stick around!

Ah! All of that silliness from the last book will be resolved…

I was delighted with this addition to Veronica and Stoker’s story. I was less enamored of the last book and so glad for the return to sleuthing and adventure in this one, along with the lighter tone. Great story, fun read, and I look forward to the next installment.

Great addition to a very enjoyable series
