Mercury Raine: Ghost Broker

By: Sarah M. Eden

Narrated by: Jake Stormoen

In the glittering world of the ton wealth is as important as rank, rank nearly as important as connections. But nothing is as vital to one’s success in Society as having the right ghost. What is fashionable in specters changes almost as often as preferred fabrics and necklines, favored Diamonds of Society and admired Town bucks. Trading an unstylish ghost can mean the difference between social success and utter failure. And no one is more adept at facilitating those trades than England’s most sought-after ghost broker... Mercury Raine.

Born a penniless orphan, he has made both a name for himself and an enviable fortune. But when the intriguing Miss Huddleston and her overbearing mother arrive at his estate, intent on making an advantageous specter swap, the carefully crafted facade he presents to the world begins to crack. Miss Huddleston has brought a secret, one that could destroy everything he has built.

This book marks the start of an exciting new series, and you want to start now! Set in a mysterious Regency-era world where ghosts can be exchanged, Mercury Raine: The Ghost Broker is an incredibly creative and one-of-a-kind story.
Mercury Raine himself is the best in the business, a skilled and intriguing ghost broker.

The audiobook, narrated by none other than Jake Stormoen, is absolutely fantastic. His performance brings the characters to life...the voices are incredible!
This story hooked me from the start. It's quick, clever, and captivating. I'll be reading every single one in this series. I can't wait to see what comes next!

The perfect cute ghost story and introduction to what is going to be a fun series.

This was such a fun story! Perfect for a fall read, I loved how original and entertaining this novella was. After listening to this first installment, I am hooked and cannot wait to read more, especially after the forbidding and intriguing ending that has me fully invested in Mercury Raine and all these ghosts. It’s the perfect cute ghost story and I am here for it.

Jake Stormoen should narrate way more books because I loved his performance with this story! The way he did the different accents and personalities made the audiobook a blast to listen to and I highly recommend consuming this story via the audiobook version.

I was gifted a copy of this audiobook. All thoughts and opinions are my own. I truly enjoyed listening to this and am excited for more. The story was witty and original with a great cast of characters and setting already.

New “Seasonal Classic” Haunted Mansion Style

Storytelling at its finest! Beautifully narrated by Jake Stormoen with distinct voices, bringing this atmospheric story alive. It's like visiting Haunted Mansion before it was derelict. Just enough mystery to keep you invested yet lighthearted enough to easily binge and feel hopeful. I'm excited to see where this series goes!

An Audiobook Like Radio Theater

Jake Stormoen’s clear, musical voice, like a viola that can play all the parts in a string quartet, elevates this audiobook to an old-time radio theater experience, Each character has a unique accent and personality,

A clever, witty story that is clean enough for a fall family road trip.

Excellent voicing of the characters.

Jake Stormoen's reading made it easy to keep all the Ghosts straight. I think it would have been very confusing without all the different accents and tones of voices. Loved it! Can't wait for the next one.
