Resumen del Editor

Fleeing the attentions of the handsome and commanding Marquess of Darkefell, Lady Anne Addison arrives on the doorstep of a dear friend seeking nothing but rest and relaxation, but soon finds herself putting her investigative talents to work after a sighting of the Barbary Ghost. Always a skeptic of the supernatural, Lady Anne immediately suspects the apparition is nothing more than a diversionary tactic to conceal smugglers on the beach below her friend's house.

When the beguiling marquess follows her to Cornwall, Anne is distracted from her ghost hunt by his alluring kisses, until murder gets her attention. Forced once again to work with the marquess to uncover the truth behind a mystery, she soon discovers that her passionate attraction to him has not abated. Should she run from him again, or give in to temptation?

Pirates, ghost and romance ?

I was hoping the romance story would advance more than it had... keeping my fingers crossed, it will blossom in book 3.

Spinster at 24? I must say this story was better

Than the last one but both enjoyable. the narrator was very good the story exciting but predictable. Darkefell and Lady Ann, what can be said, I like the story and will see it to the end. I hope that the journey will be as entertaining as books one and two.

Great mysteries

I really like this series. The mysteries are good in it. The characters are really well played. I can certainly relate to Lady Ann. Very romantic, but not a lot of sexual scenes but more mystery and I do love it. It is still set back an older time.

& the gothic romance continues

another great mystery... twist & turns absolutely worth the listen/read. I hated to see it end. but the 3rd audible/book will bring more mystery & hopefully fulfilled love...I can't wait to get started on it!

Well done!

I really enjoyed this book. After listening to the first book in the series, Lady Anne and the Howl in the Dark, I was pretty excited to get to this installment because I felt like Darkefell and Lady Anne had some unfinished business to deal with. Once I started listening, I was quickly taken with the new mystery in Lady Anne's life and couldn't wait to see how things would work out.

After leaving Darkefell's home, Lady Anne goes to visit a friend for a while. She isn't there for long before she sees the Barbary Ghost and decides to figure out what is really going on. Lord Darkefell isn't ready to give up on Lady Anne and finds her in Cornwall and before long is helping her investigate everything that is happening. I found the mystery to be quite complex and liked the fact that I couldn't quite put all of the pieces together on my own. There were definitely a few surprises thrown into the mix.

Lady Anne and Lord Darkefell make a great team. They really do work well together and they have a lot of chemistry. They are both great characters and I really want to see them work things out. Lord Darkefell is used to being in charge and can become too authoritative with Lady Anne. They both want each other but Lady Anne isn't sure that she wants marriage since it will mean giving up her freedom.

I thought that Danielle Cohen did a fantastic job with the narration of this book. I seem to be enjoying this narrator more and more each time I listen to her work. I like the different voices that she uses and I think that she adds a lot of emotion into the reading of the story. I think she has a very pleasant voice that is easy to listen to for hours at a time and I think that the accent she uses works wonderfully with this series.

I would recommend this series to others. This is the second book in the Lady Anne Addison Mysteries series which is best read in order if possible because of the ongoing character relationships. I cannot wait to get started on the next book in this series.

I received a review copy of this audiobook from the narrator.

Meh

I really enjoyed the 1st book in this series, which is obviously bought the 2nd but the latter was definitely not as good as the first. I am going to give the 3rd a try tho because I want to see if Ann and Tony FINALLY end up living happily ever after.😉

a bit, " racey, sexually speaking" for my taste

but a really great read, or, listen! I had to skip some parts, but it was worth it, overall
