Resumen del Editor

Jackson Young and Fletcher Doherty are back in London and on a mission - to bring to light the murky underbelly of the Charles Payne media empire and, in doing so, get justice for the murder of Tallulah Payne.

It's not a simple task though. They need proof. They need people to speak up. And they need to keep their hands off each other long enough to track down the other manipulated Lotus Flowers, convince them to come forward and find a way to bring it all to the public. Not so easy when they're up against the most powerful men in London who are determined to separate and silence them by any means possible.

It's a race against time, with a deadline not only on their story or their growing relationship but on their entire lives.

Amazing ending to a fantastic trilogy!

This is the final book in C.F. White’s London Lies trilogy. You’ll want to listen to Fade to Blank and Hide to Seek first. As such, this review may contain spoilers to the first two books.

Things absolutely come to a head during this book. Jackson & Fletcher uncover even more in their mission to discover who murdered Tallulah and Chris. The deeper they dig, the more they realize this involves a greater conspiracy than they ever could have imagined. White sets a perfect pace that keeps you wanting to listen without interruption – this is a fantastic mix of thriller, mystery, and suspense with steamy romance.

It’s hard to believe that the entire series only covers mere weeks because she packs so much in. While it is a short time period, because we get to know Fletcher and Jackson so well as individuals and as a couple – the HEA is completely believable. I also adored the epilogue and the future White unfolds for this unlikely pairing.

Of note: Because it had been a few months – I relistened to the first two books again right before and this is the kind of trilogy you can listen to more than once and discover new things. Truly enjoyable.

Narration:
Piers Ryman wraps up this series with another fantastic narration. His performance is so consistent from the previous books, you could easily binge this and not tell he ever took a break in between books. I continue to be impressed with his effortless switch between voices and accents.

I purchased the ebook, however I did receive a free copy of the audiobook from the author and am voluntarily leaving an honest review.

A Thrilling Conclusion to the Series

I love this series so much because of the fantastic writing but also because I love listening to Piers Ryman. His easily distinguishable character voices really enhanced the story for me.

The mystery and conspiracy turned out to be even greater than what Jackson and Fletcher suspected. This whole series was so captivating it’s hard to believe that it takes place over such a short period of time.

Once again, CF White has written a thrilling series that kept me on the edge of my seat until all was revealed. I look forward to reading many more exciting books from her.

A complimentary copy of this audiobook was provided to me at my request but my review was voluntary and not influenced by the author and/or narrator.

A brilliant end to an amazing series!

I absolutely love this series and recommend listening to this one in the series order for maximum enjoyment.

Fletcher and Jackson are absolutely amazing together.
The flirty banter and the domesticity between them was adorable.

The ending took me by surprise and I couldn't hope for a better one.

Piers Ryman performed an amazing audio delivery and narration.

Definitely recommend this entire series

justice for mickey mouse

The farther I got into this story , the more I despaired that the author would give these men justice. But fear not, she came through in blazing brilliant style!!! The snarky comments and dry whit throughout kept me smirking. I didn't think I could love these two men more , but I was very wrong. I appreciated their struggles and their truths coming to light, and setting the record to rights. I feel totally wrung out but satisfied and happy. I voluntarily listened to a free copy of this and am giving an honest review. The narrator did an excellent job bringing the characters and story to life.

Stunning conclusion

I really enjoy C.F. White books. I adored her District Line series, and so leapt in with both feet to the London Lies series. I’m so glad I did. These books have been exciting. A look back at 1999 and the advent of Internet Journalism. And an inside look at the entertainment industry. And a few crimes thrown in for good measure.

This book picks up right where Book 2 left off. Fletcher and Jackson are on the run. The first scene, though, involves a family member of Fletcher getting into some trouble. I wasn’t surprised, but I did wonder where that plot line was going to lead.

Anyway, Fletcher and Jackson are back in London. The intrepid reporter and the mega star are on the trail of a killer. Jackson’s girlfriend, Tallulah Payne, was murdered. Yes, Jackson’s friend Chris claimed he did it, and committed suicide, but that was always too neat and tidy. Jackson’s gut tells him that’s not the truth. Fletcher doesn’t believe it either. To prove who’s really behind all this, the men are going to have to be creative. This includes Fletcher showing back up at the office of London Lights, the Internet rag he worked for. I was surprised they hadn’t revoked his pass, but then security never seemed a priority. Dishing on celebrities was.

Fletcher also has to face Heston – the man he lived with for two years. The man he believed himself in love with. The man who betrayed him. Another fascinating piece of the puzzle.

Bad guys abound in these books, but there are also little story lines that break through. Like Jackson’s brother’s illness. Their parents. The industry that used and abused young boys and girls. Jackson and Fletcher plan to bring it all down. But they may lose everything in the process – including their lives.

There’s also the little matter of Jackson being in the closet. Fletcher is coming to care for the man, but can their budding relationship survive?

Okay, so it’s a CF White romance, and I got my satisfying ending. A sweet ending, in fact.

I’ll mention Piers Ryman quickly – he deserves a lot of praise. He made these great books even better, and I’m so pleased I went along for the ride. Well done all around, and I highly recommend the series.
