This is a story of a young woman who lives with her brother who is an inspector for Scotland Yard. She has been sneaking out dressed as a gentleman to play piano at a club to make the money she needs to pay the tuition at the Royal Academy. At work, she gets to know Jack and things start to heat up there, and she begins noticing odd things going on behind the scenes. Then one night she finds a friend beaten and barely alive.... and her world takes a turn as her investigation crosses paths with her brother's investigation and they both are struggling to find those whom they can trust. In terms of a fictional mystery set in the Victorian era, it's quite fun. While some of the injuries and recoveries may be a bit of a stretch it was still a fun read and kept pretty clean.

Narrator- does a great job with all the voice differentiations.

Excellent listen!

I enjoyed the characters, plot and narration and am longing for more from this author / narrator team.

ENGAGING, WELL-NARRATED MYSTERY

Know how you can get distracted listening to narrated book? Well, you won’t with this great book. Between the story, which included great pieces of historical facts and excellent research, and its terrific narrator, I found I never missed a bit of it to distraction. A rare combination, and I loved it. Looking forward to listening to the author’s next while I walk. Thank you, Ms. Odden. Please keep writing!

Should be a movie!

A Dangerous Duet is so well written and researched. I felt as if I was watching a movie. I could see, hear, and smell the Victorian era and events. This multi-layered novel has a lot going on and is seemless in its unfolding ....a main character with musical gifts, hopes and dreams and the bravery to go for it, a crime syndicate, tangled relationships, family history, sibling bonds, friendship, love, and suspense. I thoroughly enjoyed being swept into this era and getting to know her cast of characters. The narrator was an excellent choice and I loved her accent! This is the first book I’ve read/listened by Karen Odden, but will soon be reading her first novel, A Lady in the Smoke

Terrible story

The female protagonist is so dumb and has such questionable morals I had to stop listening. I’m going to exchange it because I feel cheated. Please don’t waste your money on this dull book with unrealistic characters that behave like idiots.
