Publisher's summary

A dangerous prophecy threatens Edwardian London...and it begins with a murder.

Lily Albright can see the future, and it looks like hell.

In an England on the brink of war, Lily is plagued by psychic visions of the cataclysmic destruction of London. An ancient prophecy is coming to fruition, and it starts with the gruesome discovery of a corpse in the sewers.

To save her city, Lily must untangle a web of conspiracy and violence. She'll need the help of all of her fellow Charismatics—the men and women who know "the impossible things". That includes the enigmatic Lord Strangford, whose ability to see into the darkest corners of Lily's soul threatens to tear their relationship apart.

From the gaslamps and gutters of the Limehouse, to the champagne-soaked ballrooms of St. John's Wood, Lily races to expose a plot that could bring the British empire to its knees. But changing fate and preventing an apocalypse will put Lily's charismatic powers to the ultimate test.

Jacquelyn Benson continues The London Charismatics with another supernatural historical fantasy full of deadly mystery and arcane powers. Download The Shadow of Water and return to the dark, mystical streets of Edwardian England in this series narrated by 20-year acting veteran Alex Picard.

Thrilled

I am thrilled that these books are finally making their way to audio. I read the first one and really enjoyed it, when I saw the second on audible I snatched it up immediately. The reader is fantastic, the story is entertaining and I care about the characters. I will be waiting for book three to drop on audio and in the meantime I will read the novella.

Amazing sequel

I’m not one usually for mysteries but I absolutely loved this subsequent book in this series. It has enough romance to keep me satisfied and the I loved the diverse characters! You can’t help but remember them all as you go about your day wishing you knew such splendid people.
