About this listen

When Ludlow Fitch's parents cruelly betray him, he steals away to the country. He arrives in a remote village, where he meets the tall and limping figure of Joe Zabbidou - a pawnbroker with a difference. For Joe trades secrets, not goods. Employed as Joe's assistant, Ludlow records the villagers' fiendish confessions in an ancient leather-bound volume: The Black Book of Secrets.

There's the gravedigger who has been resurrecting bodies; the butcher who made a mouse-meat pie; the wizened bookseller who went to murderous lengths to get her hands on a priceless tome. Ludlow longs to trust his mysterious master, but he senses Joe has much to hide. But then Ludlow Fitch has his own, very dark, secrets...

The first book I ever read

This is the best book I’ve ever read to this day, and the reading here makes it so easy to listen to over and over, it’s still my favourite series and the world building, character arcs and satisfying dialogue between the very likeable main characters are why I keep coming back, if you have a credit spare, it’s well worth it. If you haven’t, I’d still 100% go for it
