The Thief of Blackfriars Lane

De: Michelle Griep

Narrado por: Nan McNamara

There's often a fine line between a criminal and a saint.

Constable Jackson Forge intends to make the world safer, or at least the streets of Victorian London. But that's Kit Turner's domain, a swindler who runs a crew that acquires money the old-fashioned way - conning the rich to give to the poor.

When a local cab driver goes missing, Jackson is tasked with finding the man, and the only way to do that is by enlisting Kit's help. If Jackson doesn't find the cabby, he'll be fired. If Kit doesn't help Jackson, he’ll arrest her for thievery. Yet neither of them realize those are the least of their problems.

Entertaining-sweet story

This is a perfect crime story for a woman like me who doesn’t want to hear about eyes being gouged out and fingers being cut off! But if you want a realistic story, it’s probably not for you. The author kept it exciting-even if it’s not as realistic as a crime author would write. I really enjoy Michelle Griep’s writing style.

Excellent

What a fun book! It’s filled with wit, action, danger, and mystery. The characters are well developed and I loved Jackson’s young, over-eager zeal. His book-knowledge is such a perfect match to Kit’s street-smarts, and the two of them are great together.

The story gets a bit unrealistic at times, but not in an eye-rolling sort of way. It manages to blend fun and serious, staying light but not shallow, edging on cheesy but keeping clear of corny. I really enjoyed the read, and also appreciated the Christian message that’s weaved in.

Definitely recommended, along with the audiobook.

Content:
There is no foul language or sex. There’s some violence, but it is not gory or overly detailed. The romance is limited to lightly descriptive kisses. This is a Christian book and speaks often of faith and trusting in God.

Good, except for the narrator

The story is good and very enjoyable, but I had to force myself to listen to it because, while her overall reading was fine, I’m sorry to say the narrator is terrible with English accents. It was so distracting! I see there is a sequel, but I will probably try to get my hands on a hard copy or a Kindle version if it has the same narrator. I’d like to hear her do a book with only American accents. I think she’d do well at that.

Another Great Adventure!

Once again, Michelle Griep does not disappoint with page turning suspense, action and historical romance! Wonderful character development, lots of surprising plot twists, set in a well described period in history. The narration was excellent too. I loved it!! A must read for any Michelle Griep fan! ☺️😃😍

Buckle up & hold tight! You're in for a wild ride!

This was so much fun to listen to! It's fast paced, exciting, suspenseful and romantic! Michelle Griep never disappoints...she is quickly becoming one of my favorite authors! I guarantee you'll love this one!
