Summary

There’s a new crow in town....

After the explosive events of the Copper Heart, Lydia must deal with a secret service operative with murder in his heart.

The mysterious Mr Smith has sent a professional assassin after Lydia and the bonds of blood are stretched to breaking point when it turns out to be someone very close to home.

Meanwhile, the head of the powerful Silver Family is demanding a favour and Lydia must comply or risk their fledgling alliance.

To be strong enough to beat the odds stacked against her, Lydia must delve deep into Crow Family lore, but what she discovers is far from a fairy tale....

In a fight between two Crows, only one can win, but is Lydia willing to do what it takes to defeat her adversary?

Don't miss the exciting sixth instalment in the best-selling urban fantasy mystery series Crow Investigations.

Critic reviews

"My favourite new urban fantasy series, clever and twisty and deliciously magical, with a shivery sense of wonder that feels utterly grounded in its London setting. Perfect for fans of Ben Aaronovitch, Genevieve Cogman or Robert Galbraith!" (Stephanie Burgis, author of Snowspelled)

Great series.

This book was excellent. Good story. Well embedded characters. And brilliant narration by Kate Rawson.
Worth starting at book one if you haven’t already. I think this would make a great drama series on Netflix

Great series, great narration

I’ve read a couple of these books and listened to all of the others. The audio versions are great. Sarah Painter has created an interesting world with believable magic, if such a thing exists. It makes a refreshing change from fantasy books where everything is just a bit too convenient. The book does a good job of summarising what’s happened in previous books for those who haven’t read the start of the series or, like me, forget details easily!

Another great story

I'm loving the Sarah Painter books, I've read 3 of them in the last week or so. They are so easy to listen to, but there is always plenty going on. The characters are believable, and always necessary to the storyline. A great piece of writing, brilliantly narrated.
