Publisher's summary

A thirty-year-old murder...

Old Town, Edinburgh. In a squalid tenement where poverty, rats, and disease are rampant, a young woman who worked in a local tavern lies dying. Just another number and bound for a pauper's grave in Greyfriars Kirkyard.

A boy found standing in his mother's blood...

Alone, his grandmother the only family left, young Angus Brodie hides in the shadows nearby, the bronze medallion his dying mother pressed into his hand clenched in a tight fist as the constables carry her body from the tenement. And a name overheard—the man who was there that night, seen by the woman who collected the rents.

A vow made. A promise to be kept...

As his mother lay dying, Angus Brodie vowed that he would find the one responsible for her death, no matter how long it took.

Mystery Maven

What a cliff hanger! Great story, outstanding narration, and the cliff hanger is a doozy! Can’t wait for the next entry.

Captivating Read

Simply put, I did not want it to end. Brodie and Mikaela are among my favorite couples, and I love spending time with them in Ms. Simpson's captivating stories. From the first book, mystery has shrouded Brodie's past, creating a barrier between him and the rest of the world, including Mikaela. Thankfully, it is time to lift the veil on some of that history. However, as often is the case, there are those who want and need the veil to remain in place to protect themselves. All of this makes for a riveting tale of lies, secrets, and danger that kept me engaged from beginning to end.

I also enjoyed spending more time with Monroe and meeting a new character who I hope to meet again in future books.

Speaking of future books, I do hope that the next one is not far off because that ending, while not exactly a cliffhanger, does have the affect of omitting the last page of a mystery novel. Well played, Ms. Simpson. Well played.

As always, Bronwen Price does an amazing job of voicing these characters. Her skill definitely enhances the experience.

Their chemistry

Can’t wait for next book to be released on audiobooks as I’m unable to read books with my eyesight these days. When will it be released on audiobook (Deadly obsession)
