In the newest mystery from the national best-selling author of Where the Dead Lie, a brutal murder draws Sebastian St. Cyr into the web of the royal court, where intrigue abounds and betrayal awaits.

London, 1814. As a cruel winter holds the city in its icy grip, the bloody body of a beautiful young musician is found half-buried in a snowdrift. Jane Ambrose's ties to Princess Charlotte, the only child of the Prince Regent and heir presumptive to the throne, panic the palace, which moves quickly to shut down any investigation into the death of the talented pianist. But Sebastian St. Cyr, Viscount Devlin, and his wife Hero refuse to allow Jane's murderer to escape justice.

Untangling the secrets of Jane's world leads Sebastian into a maze of dangerous treachery where each player has his or her own unsavory agenda and no one can be trusted. As the Thames freezes over and the people of London pour onto the ice for a Frost Fair, Sebastian and Hero find their investigation circling back to the palace and building to a chilling crescendo of deceit and death....

Each book in the St Cyr series has been a fascinating look at history told in a romantic crime based format. I enjoy the author’s notes as much as the story where she reveals the warp and weft of history on which the characters and stories are woven. Nearing the end of the series, and I wonder where this talented writer will take us next.

Fascinating

I have listened to every one of CS Harris' Lord Devlin mysteries and this competes with the best of them.

Thoughtful plot (but not so intricate that it keeps me awake at night), well developed and interesting characters within enough historical framework to make it compelling listening.

Another wonderful adventure in Regency London

If you have read or listened to any of the books of this series you know why I love them. I also love that the writer does so much research to keep the fiction as true to history as she can.

I love this series

This is a very complex story which puts the royal family in a very bad light. Most other books have 'Prinny' as an affable, slightly eccentric buffoon. He is quite different in this story. I wonder if Devlin and Hero ever get tired of people trying to kill them. 🤔

Hero is a hero

C. S. Harris is a wonderful writer. Each book makes you crave the next one. And her plots are complicated enough that you can listen to the series again and again. I start the series over for each new book and I find something that I've missed each time.

The narration is wonderful. Every time Davina Porter reads a book her narration is first rate.

Another excellent book in this series.

I enjoy this series! I like how developed the characters are & how Sebastian & Hero interact with others & have become like friends through these excellent mysteries that take place in a fascinating era. I love that so many things really happened.

Davina Porter is such an enchanting narrator; she’s in my top 5. I can even hear when she’s smiling. She’s versatile & can do accents quite well.

I would recommend this series to anyone who loves mysteries with some romance thrown in. I’m always excited when the newest Sebastian St. Cyr is available. Enjoy!

Great historical mystery!

I find the mystery and adventure in this series captivating owing to the fact that I never am able to figure out ‘who dunnit’. I am always guessing who the culprit is and without fail, always wrong! Besides the the main characters it’s also the history that grabs me immediately. It’s fascinating to think how daily life was lived back then. The end of the novel connects some of the events in the book to the actual occurrences referred to in history. I’m already looking forward to the next issue! Davina Porter is as always the most talented narrator! I actually look for new audile books by referencing her name in the search engine.

If you like history...

I am a faithful fan of Ms Harris and the Sebastian series. I adore Davina Porter and will listen to pretty much all that she reads (except the Outlander series...but that's because of the storyline, not Ms. Porter). However, Ms. Porter was really off with her character voices! Sebastian didnt sound like himself until the end of the book...and one character who was suppose to be young sounded very old! Ms. Harris's writing was as perfect as ever. If you are looking for a great series....try this one! But still trying to forgive Ms. Harris for Devlin and Kate...readers will know what I mean!

Love this series
