Penny Green Series, Book 4

De: Emily Organ

Narrado por: Gabrielle Baker

London 1884. Electricity pioneer Simon Borthwick lights up Victorian London with a stunning illuminations display - then shoots himself in a hansom cab.

Plucky Fleet Street reporter Penny Green witnesses the inventor's death and suspects the clue to his suicide lies in a mysterious letter he left behind. But can she persuade Inspector James Blakely of Scotland Yard that a crime has been committed?

Borthwick isn't the only person who died that day, and Penny soon encounters a shadowy world which the police can't get close to. When the intimidation begins, Penny starts to fear for her own safety. James does what he can to protect her, but is it enough?

Wow

Oh what a web we weave…. Complicated murder mystery with many characters.

Loving this series!

Lights, Action ,Murder. Mystery

Loved the historical and Victorian setting and much interesting information regarding many subject, from Bogata, Columbia to the fashionable society and crime ridden streets of London. However, the story did drag somewhat in the middle. But never fear, it picked up and raced to a startling and surprising ending. Whats next for the fearless, head strong ground breaking female reporter?

Better than the first

The stories are better, but I’m still confused. Half the time Penny is bold and resourceful and then other times she acts like a child. Hope she grows up soon.

Penny's letters

Pretty good murder mystery...Super slow burn with Penny's and James love story. Then add unanswered questions about Penny's long missing/dead dad. Keeps you listening and waiting for answers.

Absolute surprise ending

This has definitely been my favorite of the Penny Green series with all its twist and turns. Kept me guessing

I have found a new series

I have found a new series. At first it was hard for me , but I have come to enjoy this series. I am looking forward to reading all of penny’s adventures.

Love, Love, Love this story

I have been devouring this series since I started listening to it. I’m am completely captivated with the characters and the story. The narrator is fantastic. I feel like she brings the characters to life. The author does wonderful job and describing everything with such detail. I can’t wait to start the next book!

I’m hooked

I absolutely love this series and am running to book 5 right NOW

Literally the best thing I’ve listened to in years

Good story, But I wish this lingering for James would end!! It gets tiring!

I liked story. I disliked her weakness and the lingering for James. It gets tiring and drags.

Interesting mystery

The mystery is interesting, but Penny is annoying half the time, especially when she’s whiny and petulant. This contradicts her seemingly strong, independent personality. I wonder if the narrator makes her seem whiny or if she’s truly written to be that way. It’s a little unfulfilling that her love interest is engaged. So I’m mixed about this series. If the mystery solving had a faster pace and wasn’t bogged down by Penny drama, I’d want to move onto the next in the series.
