About this listen

When fire destroys their London theatre, Lord Westfield’s players must seek out humbler venues in the countryside. But company manager Nicholas Bracewell is distracted by a shocking tragedy: a mysterious messenger from his native Devon is murdered by poison. Though the messenger is silenced, Nicholas understands what he must do: return to his birthplace and reconcile some unfinished business of the past.

The rest of Westfield’s Men, penniless and dejected, ride forth with him on a nightmare tour that will perhaps become their valedictory, dogged as they are by plague, poverty, rogues, and thieves. And among the sinister shadows that glide silently with them toward Devon is one who means Nicholas never to arrive....

Best of the Series

Nicholas Bracewell goes home. More than once while listening to this novel, I was sure I knew which way the plot would twist. I got it wrong every time. But that's not why this novel is so good. While Nicholas is front and center as always, Westfield's Men take a cameo role, and the women step into the spotlight. One dies; one is rescued. and one comes into her own. All change Nicholas forever.
