The newspapers called us the Seven Wonders. We were a group of friends, that’s all, and then Toby died. Was killed. Murdered.
1905. A decade after the grisly murder of Oxford student Toby Feynsham, the case remains hauntingly unsolved. For Jeremy Kite, the crime not only stole his best friend, it destroyed his whole life. When an anonymous letter lands on his desk, accusing him of having killed Toby, Jem becomes obsessed with finally uncovering the truth.
Jem begins to track down the people who were there the night Toby died – a close circle of friends once known as the ‘Seven Wonders’ for their charm and talent – only to find them as tormented and broken as himself. All of them knew and loved Toby at Oxford. Could one of them really be his killer?
As Jem grows closer to uncovering what happened that night, his pursuer grows bolder, making increasingly terrifying attempts to silence him for good. Will exposing Toby's killer put to rest the shadows that have darkened Jem’s life for so long? Or will the gruesome truth only put him in more danger?
Some secrets are better left buried…
From the bestselling, acclaimed author of The Magpie Lord and The Secret Lives of Country Gentlemen comes a chilling historical mystery with a sting in the tail. You won’t be able to put this gripping story down!

One poor review mentioned intimate scenes being "lacking." They are "fade to black" scenes, not detailed and not like her other romance novels but she was clear - this is a murder mystery, not a romance novel. Still, they added to the story. I can appreciate subtlety. I liked Jem leaving his stocking on in chapter 9, and taking it off in chaper 14.

This new offering from KJ Charles is a head-scratching murder mystery, and it is a humdinger! I never figured it out!
Jem Kite sets out to solve the decade-old murder of one of his best friends at Oxford University. Jem and his six closest friends were called the Seven Wonders for their all-around excellence, arriving at Oxford from different backgrounds and becoming fast friends despite their differences. When one of their own is murdered before the finals of their last year, they know (because reasons) that one of them did it.
We follow Jem as he sets out to find the killer, and as told in flashbacks, we learn how the Seven Wonders became close, and how they ultimately almost destroyed themselves.
I found this book riveting, with a cast of fascinating characters we’ve come to expect from KJ Charles! Tom Lawrence’s performance for the audiobook is perfect! Brava!
A mystery is afoot!

So we have a nice plot that sets and maintains a steady pace, great characterizations, and wonderful atmospheric settings. All I could want in a book. When you add in very nice narration provided by Tom Lawrence, Death in the Spires becomes all I could want in an Audiobook.
Having loved this book, I am off to read a little more from KJ Charles in hopes that I find some more gold.
