Publisher's summary

In 19th-century London, Cyrus Barker and his associate Thomas Llewelyn are renowned private enquiry agents, successfully employed by the highest levels of Her Majesty's government as well as private citizens. Their success, however, has led to their acquiring a powerful group of enemies, many of whom are determined to have their revenge.

At least one of those enemies is responsible for a bombing of their offices that puts Cyrus Barker into the hospital and endangers Thomas Llewelyn's rapidly forthcoming nuptials. To add to the confusion, Barker's long-lost brother Caleb turns up on the rubble of their doorstep not long after the not-quite-fatal bombing.

Unsure of Caleb and warned about him by Barker, Thomas reluctantly accepts Caleb's help both with a new case that comes in as well as trying to pinpoint which of Barker's enemies is making a move against them. As Thomas works his way through their enemy list, someone else is winnowing down that list: One by one those enemies are dying.

With time running out - and his bride-to-be reconsidering their marriage - Llewelyn must (with the sick-bedbound Barker's help) uncover the killer and the plot before it's too late.

Very good story.

The series seems to be back on track now with another solid story added to the collection. The characters, with the exception of Rebecca, were all very enjoyable and a little more was added to everyone's backstory.
I found the plot engaging and the narrator fantastic. Now I will have to wait until the next book comes out. I hate waiting for the next book as this has been such an excellent series. Enjoy!

Conclusions

Answers abound in this 10th book. This might be my favorite in the series and my worry is that it could be a wonderful conclusion to the series or a wonderful jumping point to an expansion of characters and new stories. Whichever it is, this is a fine 9 hours of entertainment.

Great as always

This one kept you guessing. I didn’t figure out who went to the bank and took the money.

Not keen on the brother but a good tale

Perhaps the American accent did not sit well in my American ear but, for whatever reason, I did not care for Barker’s brother. The story held my interest, however, Looking forward to more.

aforementioned

I deviated from the narrative a number of times, yet managed to listen 'til the end. An accompanying review almost swayed my
intrigue at all. Hooked on Barker & Llewelyn, as is the same w/Sherlock & Dr. Watson. A "Had to" purchase. Anticipating a less constrained addition to the Series.
