About this listen
As if bloodsuckers weren't frightening enough...whatever killed these people consumed their souls...leaving their bodies completely unscathed.
The victims had only one thing in common: They were all attacked at my club. But when you mess with my fans, Nicky's fans...well, you'll unleash Nyx and soon regret it.
The Grimoire of the Nazarene is still missing. If the Order of the Morning Dawn finds it first, Mina will unleash a legion of angels to wipe out everything she deems unnatural: vampires, witches, me...and good people like me, people in my community.
Is there a connection between these killings and the missing grimoire? I have reason to believe it's all connected.
With every body that turns up at my club, I suspect that Mina gets a little closer to acquiring the Grimoire of the Nazarene and ending us all.

Narration needs work
This story started a bit slow for me, but it picked up around chapter 7, and I was hooked after that. The mystery was engaging and a bit of a departure from the first two books and the struggle with the 'Morning Dawn'. I enjoyed the story overall, but the narration detracted from the story. I like the idea of a male narrator for male voices and a female narrator for female voices, but unfortunately, they didn't flow smoothly in this audio. It sounded like the parts were recorded separately and then spliced together. There were some unusual pauses. Additionally, there were several instances of repeated lines, sometimes with both narrators repeating the same line. Still a worthwhile listen, but be prepared for these weaknesses.

Baskerville Book Reviews
The recap at the start of the book seemed a little unneeded to me. Granted, I’ve reviewed the other stories recently. I don’t recall there being one for book 2. Maybe there was an I forgot.
I have mixed feelings about the formatting of this series. On the one hand, I wish there was an overarching story to connect all of the books. Though on the other, I’m glad I don’t have to wait to see how things end. It really takes a lot of the fire and urgency out of the story because I know it will all be wrapped up by the end.
The mystery was well done. I wasn’t trying to solve it, I never do. Looking back, I recognize some of the subtle hints and clues that I didn’t give a second thought at the time.
I really like how Nicky and her boyfriend’s relationship slightly evolves with each story. They’re finally been able to be intimate and even had a (pretty much) adopted daughter. It makes me slime to see them grow as a couple and family and the scenes with them as a group often made me laugh.
The audiobook featured numerous instances of repeated audio. The dual narrators is a rare but nice touch, for the most part. The female narrator says “onvelope”, which isn’t a word. On top of that, her audio sounds extremely different between recordings which are awkward and jarring. With the male narrator, all of his voices sound the same. There was one instance where two characters said the same line and I thought it was an instance of repeated audio at first. He really lacked the professional touch of acting out the lines and giving different voices.

Cracking series
So, book three. A little different this one and all the better for it. It starts off at a reasonable level and the ramps up and up to an ending I certainly didn’t see coming. What’s book four going to be like I wonder. This is a cracking series, one which I wasn’t sure I would like, boy has that changed. Highly recommended listen.
