About this listen
Winter 1763. Alec, Lord Halsey, is sent on a diplomatic mission to Midanich, imperial outpost of the Holy Roman Empire, to bargain for the freedom of imprisoned friends. Midanich is a place of great danger and dark secrets - a country at civil war, ruled by a family with madness in its veins. For Alec it is a place of unspeakable memories from which he barely escaped and vowed never to return. But return he must if he is to save the lives of Emily St. Neots and Sir Cosmo Mahon.
In a race against time, Alec and the English delegation journey across the icy wasteland for the castle fortress where Emily and Cosmo are imprisoned. The severe weather is as much an enemy as the soldiers of the opposing armies encamped along the way. Awaiting him at his destination is the Margrave and his sister, demanding nothing less than Alec's head on a pike.

Story
When Heather McKinley dreamed of becoming a doctor, she imagined curing sick kids and sporting pink stethoscopes. She never anticipated the sleepless nights, grueling exams, and endless labs. And she certainly never knew that her medical school earned the nickname Dead Med thanks to the tragic history of students overdosing on illegal drugs. But Heather would never consider doing anything like that. That is, until her longtime boyfriend dumps her, she finds herself failing anatomy, and her world starts to crumble.

Story
Jazz Bashara is a criminal. Well, sort of. Life on Artemis, the first and only city on the moon, is tough if you're not a rich tourist or an eccentric billionaire. So smuggling in the occasional harmless bit of contraband barely counts, right? Not when you've got debts to pay and your job as a porter barely covers the rent. Everything changes when Jazz sees the chance to commit the perfect crime, with a reward too lucrative to turn down.

Who's lying now?
Would you listen to Deadly Peril again? Why?
Yes. It's diverting.
Which scene was your favorite?
When Alex is reunited with his friend, Cosmo.
Any additional comments?
Why does everyone lie in her books, everyone and all the time? I realize the book would be much shorter, but the convoluted tales does get tedious! Maybe just one person could tell the truth, the whole truth and nothing but the truth?

Loved every minute. What an adventure. Alex's scandalous youth comes back to haunt him. In order to save Cosmo and Emily, Alex must confront the secrets and demons of his youth. Selena must also reveal her secrets to Alex so they can go forward with their relationship. This was a great read. So looking forward to the next book.

DEADLY PERIL by Lucinda Brant
WOW! What an exciting tale. The narrator simply brought this tale alive for me.
Fast paced, dramatic and emotional. Very compelling and entertaining.
The characters are compelling, complex and will capture your heart and attention.
Another outstanding audible story. Loved the narrator, so effective in getting Ms. Brand's story across to the listener. A must get audible!

Deadly Peril
Exciting, fast moving, intricately detailed mystery/romance novel! I can't wait to read Deadly Sin, which I think is to be the next book and hopefully audio book as well. Lucinda Brandt never disappoints in my opinion. Alex Wyndham is absolutely amazing (5 star talent) with all of the different character's personalities and dialects of the various languages used throughout the story. The twists and unusual turns in the plot for this mystery are refreshingly different. I purchased both the book and the audio version as I love hearing the correct pronunciation of the names, places, and the variety of dialects used in the different regions of the different countries before I read the ebook. I listened to all three of the Alec's Halsey mysteries one after the other in quick secession... now I just have to wait for the next one. Excellent book and audio book!

Intrigue, Betrayal, War
This book has it all: so much intrigue along with twists in the plot. Alec was stationed here as a young diplomat early in his career, and his mistakes come back to haunt him. Unfortunately his closest friends are paying a price as prisoners to cruel captors. Lots of surprises for me as I had no idea how it would work out. Excellent writing and a great narrator.

A moving story
There are many reviews on this story and another review is likely not needed. Nevertheless, my feelings on hits story were such that I had to review it.
I took a chance on this series after listening to Cadenza for the second time and longing for more from Ms. Brant and Mr. Wydham. The reviews were good so I gave the series a try. I was hooked
.
The characters are well developed and you hated the ones that needed hating and loved those who deserved it.
It is difficult to keep my review limited. I enjoy reading reviews but I don't like those that go on and on but want enough information to know whether I will like the story or not. So I will give it may best effort.
This series is best read in order. Each story builds on the next and the romance between Selina and Alec is best read in order.
Out of the three books this one is my favorite.
The lovely characters from books one and two are a part of this adventure but what moved me more than anything was Lord Cosmo and his captivity. I felt his pain, fear, and despair. The author's writing and Wyndham's narration of the story are so compelling, it brings one close to tears.
The last chapter had my mouth agape.... You will enjoy finding out what the unspoken truth really is. Goodness, I gasped..
Parts of Selina and Alec's story is resolved in this book
I cannot wait to read and listen to the next book
This series of worth time spend reading and/or listening. This book is so good it is worth a second, third and fourth listen....
It is worth paying for or using a credit. If you have kindle unlimited it can be read for free and the audiobook is only 7.50!!
