About this listen

Two years have passed since the dramatic destruction of Count Dracula. And Jonathan Harker has settled down to a quiet life as a junior partner in a law firm. But his reputation is about to catch up with him.

As word of his abilities spreads, clients are turning to him for help with problems which appear to have an involvement in the supernatural. His first case takes him to Cornwall, where the Haywood family are worried about the imminent marriage of their daughter, Flora, to the elusive Sir Owen Velland.

Flora had been engaged for two years to the amiable Doctor Goodwin, before suddenly breaking off the relationship in favour of Sir Owen. Yet Sir Owen had been recently widowed under very suspicious circumstances and rumours are circulating in the small Cornish town that his unnatural powers and abilities may have some involvement with devil worship.

Are these rumours just idle gossip? Or is there a dark truth behind what people are saying? Can Harker use his knowledge of unusual and the occult to befriend Sir Owen and discover his secrets? Or has he come up against an opponent even deadlier than Dracula himself?

Devil May Care sees the return of Jonathan Harker, the hero of Bram Stoker's classic Dracula, in a chilling new historical mystery series. Tony Evans is a full-time writer. His other publications include the Hester Lynton Mystery series and adaptations of classic novels [for the “Real Reads” series]. He lives with his wife in the Yorkshire Dales.

A Supernatural Mystery, Expertly Narrated


This was an excellent original story featuring Jonathan and Mina Harker from Dracula as they encounter more supernatural intrigue. Beautifully capturing the era and the characters, this was an entertaining adventure. Do Jonathan and Mina stop the nefarious Baron and his evil deeds? You will have to read and find out. I read this book using immersion reading while listening to the audiobook. Narrator Peter Noble was superb, his beautiful accent embellishing the narrative.

Full and a bit hard to follow along

I did not particularly care for this book. I love a good suspense thriller. And this was neither.

Follow the Harpers after Dracula!

Devil May Care
By: Tony Evans
Narrated by: Peter Noble
Used my Kindle Unlimited to get this book and it was a great use of it. I really enjoyed the book, I felt like I was back in time. This was a good supernatural mystery and the narrator was perfect for the feel of the book- for the time, the people, the experiences... Great job!

This had potential but was seemingly cut short.

I LOVED Dracula and so figured I'd try this.

One thing that bothered me from the beginning was that according to this story, the events of Dracula (at least the gist of it) are well known by the public, and in fact that was why Jonathan Hawker gets this "job" - because the person knows of his familiarity with these kinds of things. Going forward (very minor Spoiler here), even the "bad guy" is familiar with what happened. Wouldn't that be a big red flag to the "bad guy" as to why he might be there?

The story ended rather abruptly. It started off at a decent pace and then almost seemed like it just quickly ended. It was like they went from A->B->C->F->IJK. It could have been filled out quite a bit more for a longer and perhaps more enjoyable and suspenseful story.

The narrator is good, though I think someone younger could have done a better voice for Jonathan Hawker. But other than that, it was well done. I'd listen to other books he narrated.

Okay, not thrilling.

I know the narrator is actually British, but for some reason, he makes Harker’s accent sound fake, like the Keanu Reeves Harker. Maybe it’s because he’s trying too hard to do “posh”. I don’t know, but the whole experience of this little adventure was just okay for me.

Easy mystery

I guess if there is such a thing as gothic cozy mysteries, this would be an example. This story isn’t going to stretch your powers of deduction, but it is nicely formed and well narrated.

I could do better

Can't believe this was recommended by Amazon. Predictable, mundane, not worth your time or money.
