De: Amanda Quick

Narrado por: Islay Jacobs

New York Times bestselling author Amanda Quick invites you to experience a thrilling adventure filled with the lure of ancient secrets and the simmering passions of the Victorian age in the first Arcane Society novel.

Venetia Milton's memories of a romantic night with Gabriel Jones—an alchemist's descendant—are shattered soon thereafter by news of his death. Adopting the guise of his respectable widow, she embarks on a new career as a fashionable photographer in London, where her unique ability to "see" beyond her subjects makes her photographs highly prized.

But Venetia's romantic whim causes unexpected trouble. For one thing, Mr. Jones is about to stride, living and breathing, back into her life. And someone he is tracking will go to any lengths, even murder, to possess an ancient, extraordinary secret that has been lost for centuries. Someone who believes that as the "wife" of Mr. Jones, Venetia is the key . . .

Good hybrid of Romance & paranormal mystery

A sensual romance turns to murder mystery with bits of the paranormal. Characters are so likable and real that it all works together nicely.

A romantic Victorian mystery with some paranormal elements

I enjoyed this book. The narrator did an excellent job and constantly reminds me of Lady Mary from Downton Abbey. The story is a mix of romance and mystery with a little bit of suspense, but I found it to be a nice cozy read. It has some adult sexual scenes, but doesn’t get super explicit.

Wonderful period story.

This is a compelling performance and a very interesting period mystery. I recommend the audio book. Do not miss this.

Really good!!

I was drawn into the story right away. The strong was filled with intrigue from the start. It has mystery and steam too! I am hooked!
Audible was excellent!
My only disappointment is that there is no Audible for the 2nd book!
You will love this book!
