C.S. Harris’ best-selling Sebastian St. Cyr mysteries transport listeners back to the elegance and courtly drama of Regency England. When a wealthy diamond merchant turns up dead, Sebastian sets out to prove the innocence of the man accused - his former lover Kat’s husband. A missing gem seems to be the key, but as Sebastian traces its origins, he discovers unsettling ties to black magic.

Would you listen to What Darkness Brings again? Why?

Yes. I'll let sometime go by before listening to it again. It is well written and the performance is good.

Did the plot keep you on the edge of your seat? How?

Just as the previous books in the series, this plot kept my interest to the end.

Which scene was your favorite?

When the bad guys are found out. I won't specify by giving away details.

Was there a moment in the book that particularly moved you?

I enjoy the interaction between Sebastian and Hero.

Any additional comments?

I believe the author is making the main characters more mature and likable as the series continues. I look forward to the next one. I hope it will soon have the WS4VR feature.

Love this series!

Another masterful performance. The stories have begun to feel a bit redundant but continue to hold my interest.

Cannot quit reading this series. The history is fascinating and the characters are original. Although, I’m trying to ignore how beat up, sliced up and pounded down Sebastian is getting!

Addicting

I started at the beginning, have gone in order to this point. language and portrayal of early 19th century London and surrounds is excellently evocative you can really feel transported. some predictability book after book, but if u buy in, not difficult, articulate and engaging

Hero is waaaay more interesting and waaay less of a cliche. So - move on from Kat. She's a bore - and we don't really need to hear any more about her. The depiction of London in the early 19th century is fab. Really interesting time, really well done. Great narration.

I enjoy these - But I'm Really Sick of Kat Boleyn

Sebastian St Cyr is one of my favorite detectives in a series. The series is set in Regency England and the period detail is excellent. The particular mystery here is the murder of a man who loaned money to the wealthy in exchange for holding some of their precious paintings and jewels -- a Regency Loan Shark to the Genty. Lot so twists and turns.

Since many of the characters reappear in all the novels in the series - I would recommend starting with the first book in the series. While not on Audible it is available on the Kindle. So start with the first book - they are not long read and are lots of fun.

As always Davina Porter supplies a superb narration.

One of my Favorite Series
