About this listen

When Charlotte Haze’s nurse, Rebecca Grainger, is found murdered at a disused burial ground and her young charge is nowhere to be found, Daniel and Jason must race against the clock to solve the crime in order to save the little girl.

Will their personal connection to the victim and their desperation to save Charlotte cloud their judgment and prevent them from solving the most important case of their partnership?

Nail Biting

This was a wonderfully nail biting book. had me almost crying because of the missing child. and I always kept praying in the middle of it that Jason would find Charlotte.
However I do Not like the new narrator. voices all sound the same and too gravely. I sometimes had trouble trying to figure out who was who because of it.

Spoiler alert

Please do not read this review if you do not want SPOILERS. The only thing I didn’t like was the making supernatural stuff real just so that the characters can solve the case. I hate the whole ‘this world is grounded in reality, but we’re going to allude to the psychics and mediums having real power’ trope. But that’s mostly just a pet peeve of mine, otherwise the story was good, and I’m looking forward to the next case.

Love this author

I really enjoy stories from this author, especially Redmond and Haze series. But the narrator keep pronounce Rebecca “ Rebaccar” it’s a bit annoying. We Americans knows how to pronounce words properly sometimes.😀Otherwise it was great.

Murder and secrets

I loved this installment of the historical whodunit series staring Captain Jason Redmond and Inspector Daniel Haze. This one got closer to home and felt much more tense and emotional than the previous books. Like the other books in the series, it had a layered storyline, an intriguing mystery, surprising plot twists, and suspense. I was equally desperate to read it all at once to solve the mystery and also to savor it and make it last. Jason and Daniel are portrayed as real, relatable and complex people who have flaws and scars, but are really just trying to do their best as messy humans. Captain Jason Redmond is an American surgeon who inherited his British grandfather’s estate and title. He is living with his wife and infant daughter in London while he teaches, volunteers at the hospital and performs autopsies for the police. Daniel Haze is a detective inspector for Scotland Yard. He is widowed and lives with his young daughter. They are good friends and their different approaches often complement each other while solving cases together. Jason is put in charge of the investigation when Daniel’s governess, Rebecca, is found strangled and his daughter, Charlotte, is missing. The investigation into the death and the search for Charlotte leads Daniel and Jason to unlikely places, dead ends, plot twists, secrets, and surprising revelations. As always, there are smaller side personal story arcs and social commentary which enrich the main plot line and give the characters greater dimension. I am so happy there are many more books to read in this series.

Alex Lee did a good job narrating the story and characters into life with a good amount of change in inflection, tone and cadence. I am now enjoying the new narrators voice more.

Love the series

As much as I have enjoyed the series I have been disappointed with the new narrator. I had to listen closely as she doesn’t distinguish characters well.

I love the surprise plot twist of this author’s books

Can’t say I appreciate the narrator’s voice of Jason. I don’t like the American accent

One of the best in this series so far

One of the best in the series so far. Well written and performed with good story. There are many twists and terms as well as red herrings. We enjoyed it and recommend it highly.
