About this listen

Graham, Lord Blakemore, was believed to be lost at sea as a boy. While his mother, Lady Agatha, has never given up hope of finding her son again, others - eager for the title and the wealth that accompanies it - have been conspiring to have him declared dead against Lady Agatha's wishes. Her only ally in the house is her late husband's ward, Miss Beatrice Marlowe.

But when a dark-haired stranger arrives on their doorstep claiming to be the lost heir to Castle Black, the plots and schemes of those who would have the castle for themselves take a dark and even more sinister turn.

An orphan when she came into the care of the late Lord Blakemore, Castle Black is the only home Beatrice has ever known. Its occupants are her family. This stranger, who claims to have lost his memory of his life there, threatens the order of all that she knows and holds dear. And yet, she is both drawn to him and strangely compelled to believe his claim. Beatrice finds herself torn between her desire for him and her belief that if he is the lost lord of Castle Black, he is far above her reach.

This was okay, but didn't move me

I enjoyed the mystery of this and the concept. So I was surprised that I was never moved or engrossed in it. For one thing, the narrator used the same voice for the MMC as he did for one of the obnoxious, perverted villains. So it made me immediately dislike him, and it was hard to hear him speak of love and smexy things to the FMC when that was the voiced used to SA her by another character. I found the FMC respectable and rational, which I like, but I again, never felt like I cared. Still, it kept me entertained until the finish.

Great mystery!

Loved ALL but the horrible voice given to Lord Blackmore. So screeching and impossible to make gentler where needed.

Very suspenseful

I enjoyed this story very much. The plot kept me guess until the end.
The characters were reasonably fleshed out. It was fun trying to figure out who the villain(s) were. I would highly recommend this book!

Good Mystery

The story definitely kept me listening. Some parts seemed unlikely….but what fun anyway! This narrator has SUCH a lovely voice with a pleasant accent perfect for Beatrice. When she changes to depict Graham’s voice though, the gravel of it makes him seem like he is angry all the time.
Great plot….

Fair book and not so good narration..


This was a decent story of a castle with murder and deceit and lots of anger and mysterious goings-on. BUT I can’t see myself listening to anymore of this series. The narration was not good at all.

There was explicit sex in this, and the F-bomb was used 2 times.

As to the narration: Esther Wane made the men, especially the hero, Graham, sound like they were all dealing with constipation. Just because a FEMALE narrator can do the voice of a WOMAN character right doesn’t make her a narrator. Have a listen to Ashford McNab or Kate Rudd or Mary Jane Wells, or any number of really good female narrators who CAN do a man's voice, and practice a little more, Ms. Wane.

Wonderful story! Refreshing and just the right amount of intrigue and heartfelt moments.

It was refreshing to listen to a story that really dealt with real life situations, while keeping the events interesting and historically relevant. Marriage, family, forgiveness, love and acceptance can be heard here.
Narrator was good as well but Graham’s voice did sound older than his actual years. I realize he’d been through a lot and I’m glad the narrator saw the importance of making sure Graham’s voice didn’t remain as it would have, if he’d remained a part of the aristocracy. Overall, excellent work and I’m glad I gave this author a try. Can’t wait to begin the next book! Definitely not disappointed, refreshing to hear something different.

Exciting!

This was a book about the return of a long lost son to his mother, but oi there money-grubbing relatives didn't want him there so they could get the title. It was exciting at times as a ruthless half brother kills people in his way. The story end happily but there is a lot of Nathan in between!

Foul language!

The leading man was grouchy sounding and far too demanding of his lady. I’ll probably pass on further titles from this author.
