The Instruments of Darkness

A Thriller

De: John Connolly

Narrado por: Jeff Harding

From the international and instant New York Times bestselling author John Connolly, this heart-wrenching installment of the beloved and brilliant Charlie Parker series “will leave readers breathless and shaken” (Booklist).

In Maine, Colleen Clark stands accused of the worst crime a mother can commit: the abduction and possible murder of her child. Everyone—ambitious politicians in an election season, hardened police, ordinary folk—has an opinion on the case, and most believe she is guilty.

Defending Colleen is the lawyer Moxie Castin, and working alongside him is the private investigator Charlie Parker, who senses the tale has another twist, one involving a husband too eager to accept his wife’s guilt, a group of fascists arming for war, a disgraced psychic seeking redemption, and an old, twisted house deep in the Maine woods, a house that should never have been built.

A house, and what dwells beneath.

ONE OF MY FAVORITES!!

Another wonderful story featuring Charlie Parker and his friends. I have enjoyed John Connolley’s books and read the entire Charlie Parker series. This is my second time. I highly recommend AA+++

love it as always

can't get enough of his books. love these stories and love the characters. always looking forward to the next one

Great as always

I keep waiting to be disappointed by a John Connolly book. But no! The story, the characters, and the dialogue (especially the great dialogue) were fantastic, and I finished The Instruments of Darkness in record time, unable to put it down.

The narrator captures the atmosphere created by the author perfectly.

As wonderful as the Charles Parker series are to read, they are an even better listen.

Ticked all my boxes for a “slow” listen. Didn’t want to get to the end!!!! Fantastic book

I loved, loved, loved it!
I listened as I would enjoy eating a really good dessert…… going back for seconds…. By rewinding.
Ready for the next one…. Thank you for the written word and the narrator….just delicious!!!! The flow of the story line and how well old and new characters were introduced and intertwined.

LOVE, LOVE, LOVE the Charlie Parker series

John Connolly is my favorite author, Jeff Harding is the perfect narrator and the Charlie Parker is the BEST! this latest release does not disappoint

Disappointed

the last few books have not enough about his children and his origin. too much left dangling!

So good

Great story love continues and gets better, missed Sam and Jennifer in this one… love the wise cracks from Louie and Angel,Folchie brothers are awesome!!

Always A Pleasure

Charlie Parker has become a good friend. I never want the stories to end.
The mind of John Connolly always gas a surprise, great characters and stories.
He has once again proven why he is one of the best

Exceptional!

As usual, John Connolly's descriptive writing and dry wit is brought to life by Jeff Hardings acting. I own all the Charlie Parker books, and have made it a yearly habit to re-listen to all of them in order, and then purchase the newest book in the series. That is book 22, Children of Eve. I cannot wait!
