About this listen

Lady Georgiana Rannoch and her dashing husband, Darcy, are awaiting a bundle of joy, but an unexpected trip to Paris will thrust them straight into a tangled web of international intrigue in this all-new mystery in the New York Times best-selling Royal Spyness series from Rhys Bowen.

What a delight it is to finally be able to enjoy a simple meal again! I have been in the throes of morning sickness for the last few months as Darcy and I prepare to welcome a brand-new addition to our little family. Now that I am feeling better, I have realized I am dreadfully bored! It seems that all my nearest and dearest are off leading their own busy lives while I sit at home and attempt to train our two adorably naughty puppies. Fun as it may be, it is hard not to long for a little adventure, a change of pace, before my true confinement begins when the baby comes.

Happily, it seems that Darcy has read my mind. When I receive a letter from my glamorous best friend, Belinda, Darcy suggests we take a trip to Paris to visit her. It seems he also has a spot of business of which to take care, so I will be staying in Belinda’s flat as she works feverishly on Coco Chanel’s fall collection. I happen to know Coco from a disastrous encounter in Nice years ago, and I am hoping this visit will go much more smoothly. But I soon learn that nothing about my time in Paris is going to be simple . . . or safe for that matter.

Darcy has asked me to take on a small chore as a part of his latest assignment. I am to covertly retrieve something from an attendee of Coco’s show. It seems easy enough, but I discover that this little errand could have terrifying consequences for a world on the brink of war. When things go horribly wrong, I am left to find a killer all while trying to fend off a French policeman who is certain that I am a criminal mastermind. But I have no plans to deliver my darling little one in a prison cell, and so I will muster every ounce of my courage to save the day . . . and, quite possibly, the world!

I enjoyed this latest adventure! It was a fun and lighthearted adventure that felt like a throwback after the previous books’ subject matter. I am eagerly awaiting the next novel. And Rhys, if you are reading this, I’m available to read anything you need me review ;)

Classic Georgie

I realize few narrators can match Katherine Kellgren; she is sorely missed. Ms. Blackborow has difficulty maintaining the accents, dialect, or language of any given character. They all seem to degenerate over the course of a scene and end up sounding very much the same.

I enjoyed this very different setting and story. I have loved every book in the spyness series and many more of Rhys Bowen’s books. She never fails. Keep them coming!

I love Georgie!

It was a little silly and not my favorite. But it moved the adventure forward and stayed true to the characters and history.

Another fun addition to this series

This latest installment was good as all the books are in this series and I had no problem with the narrator and didn’t hesitate to finish it but…too much drama for Georgie and dwelling on the same problem and location for too long. I didn’t like Darcy asking his pregnant wife to get involved in potentially dangerous espionage. Nor Georgie’s putting her baby at risk climbing over banisters and her careless snooping. But then I remind myself, it’s not REAL. Calm down.

Love this series but…
