Resumen del Editor

Newly arrived in New Fiddleham, New England, 1890, and in need of a job, Abigail Rook meets R. F. Jackaby, an investigator of the unexplained with a keen eye for the extraordinary - including the ability to see supernatural beings. Abigail has a gift for noticing ordinary but important details, which makes her perfect for the position of Jackaby’s assistant.

On her first day, Abigail finds herself in the midst of a thrilling case: A serial killer is on the loose. The police are convinced it’s an ordinary villain, but Jackaby is certain the foul deeds are the work of the kind of creature whose very existence the local police seem adamant to deny.

While Abigail finds herself drawn to Jackaby’s keen intelligence and his sensitivity to phenomena others barely perceive, her feelings are confused by the presence of Charlie, a handsome young policeman willing to help Jackaby and Abigail on the case. But is Charlie’s offer a sincere desire to be of service, or is some darker motive at work.

It was okay.

I didn't love it, I didn't hate it. It was fine because I bought it on sale for 3$.

Delightful!

Is it odd to call a story about serial killings delightful? Perhaps, but I very much enjoyed listening this story. it is both dark and light. The narrator is wonderful! I love her voice, perfect for the story. Anyone that enjoys the strange, macabre, and quirky will like this tale. It lifted my spirits in spite of the dark subject matter.

Not just for kids: Narration Is Extraordinary!

My teen was assigned this to read and he loved it. Needing something different to listen to, I bought the Audible edition and am now a 71 year old Jackaby fan, and I'm not a big fantasy fan in general. Nicola Barber's narration was wonderful and brought the book alive. I've now purchased all the other Jackaby books and stories.

Enjoyed & would recommend!

Jackaby is a truly enjoyable character.
He reminds of Odd Thomas with the attitude of Constantine.
The narrator was excellent with all characters. I would definitely recommend it to anyone

More Elementary

This was for more of a younger audience than I expected. Otherwise great fun. Family friendly and imaginative.

Quite good

I'm glad I took a chance on this little book and will read the next in the series. I liked the main characters, the magical creatures, the setting. The villain was a bit predictable and the climax on the gory side. A solid performance as well.

Pretty good

I'm interested in where the series goes from here. I enjoyed the story but I hope there's a bit more action in the coming books.
