Publisher's summary

A Mystery Book set in London during the late 19th century.

Step into the shadowy alleyways of 19th-century London with "The Gibbons Mystery," where art, deception, and homicidal vengeance twist together in a captivating narrative. The tragic death of artist Louis Gibbons pierces through London's cultural elite, reverberating in the corridors of wealth and power. At the heart of this tangled web is Lord Clowers, whose pursuit of truth unravels secrets far more personal than he ever anticipated.

The novel begins with Mrs. Gibbons, shrouded in veils, urgently seeking Lord Clowers's assistance following the murder of her husband, Louis Gibbons. Clowers, a respected figure both socially and artistically, is stunned by the news and resolves to help. As Mrs. Gibbons recounts the events leading to her husband's mysterious death, a grim night at the artist's studio emerges. Clowers realizes with a shock that he had been in the same studio that very night, leaving just before the murder. Determined to uncover the truth, Clowers must navigate a labyrinth of disturbing occurrences and attacks, including one on his close friend, Sir James Seton. Through these twists, the dark pasts and harrowing secrets of those nearest to him are revealed.

A key to the enigma lies in a mysterious photograph depicting a distressed woman who bears a striking resemblance to both Clowers's ward Vera Rayne and the enigmatic Countess Flavio. In his relentless pursuit of the truth, Clowers discovers Silva, a loyal servant of the Countess, as Gibbons's murderer. Silva, believing he was enacting revenge for perceived wrongs, confesses on his deathbed, thereby closing the dark chapter. Alongside this revelation, we delve into the intricate lives and blossoming romance of Vera and Clowers’s nephew, Walter Lance. As the dust of mystery settles, the characters find redemption and hope for a brighter future.

Capturing the essence of Victorian intrigue, "The Gibbons Mystery" is a masterful blend of suspense, rich character development, and the eternal struggle for justice and redemption.

not good, not good at all

I'm thinking this may have been written by AI, not just narrated by a computer. The storyline was predictable and the dialogue was ridiculous and historically hilarious. The computer-generated narration was flat with many pronunciation errors, I wish I had shut it off in the first ten minutes but somehow I couldn't stop listening wondering how much worse it would get. Just not worth your time.
