By: Anna Lee Huber

Narrated by: Heather Wilds

In 1919 England, in the shadow of The Great War, many look to the spirit world for answers. But it will take an all-too-earthbound intrigue to draw in the discerning heroine of Anna Lee Huber's latest mystery.

It's not that Verity Kent doesn't sympathize with those eager to make contact with lost loved ones. After all, she once believed herself a war widow. But now that she's discovered Sidney is very much alive, Verity is having enough trouble connecting with her estranged husband, never mind the dead. Still, at a friend's behest, Verity attends a seance, where she encounters the man who still looms between her and Sidney - and a medium who channels a woman Verity once worked with in the Secret Service. Refusing to believe her former fellow spy is dead, Verity is determined to uncover the source of the spiritualist's top-secret revelation.

Then the medium is murdered - and Verity's investigation is suddenly thwarted. Even Secret Service agents she once trusted turn their backs on her. Undaunted, Verity heads to war-torn Belgium, with Sidney by her side. But as they draw ever closer to the danger, Verity wonders if she's about to learn the true meaning of till death do us part.

Great Story

facinating look at the women's role in WW l spying and the state of the areas of those war torn countries. very exciting read.

It grow on me

I was not sure about this story or reading when I begin but by and by it grow on me. I can't wait to read or listen to the following books of this series.

The narrator...

The story. Is very good. But the way. The Narrator reads. The story. It’s annoying. To hear.

Great story

The lady reading the story has a wonderful voice and accent, but her sing-song style almost made me quit listening. I managed to stick it out to the end because the story was very interesting.

Cadence of narrator's voice is horrible

Very good story. The conversations are slightly better, but the cadence of the narrator's voice is so distracting that I will not choose another book narrated by her no matter who the author is. The sing song way she speaks is grating.
