About this listen

Something wicked is moving in the shadows of London....

In the underground world of glitzy illegal auctions, fast cars, and stolen magical artifacts, John "Dom" Domenici knows he's out of his depth. But he needs the job at Kempthorne & Co like he needs to breathe. The alternative - going back to the organized crime gangs of London's East End - is unthinkable.

So when Alexander Kempthorne, boss of Kempthorne & Co Artifact Retrieval Agency, wants him on a special case to track down an illegal artifact dealer, Dom can't say no.

It shouldn't matter that Kempthorne's world is full of deadly secrets. It shouldn't matter that the billionaire is sexy as sin, and it really shouldn't matter how there's an American agent stalking Dom, an American who knows more than he should about Dom's case, including the real reason Alexander Kempthorne hired Dom.

The only thing that really matters to Dom is solving the case and finding the artifact dealer. Because there are worse things in London than a conflicted billionaire and a trigger-happy American. Something wicked is stalking London's streets, and if Dom doesn't stop it, its shadows will rise and consume them all.

Contains mature themes.

Sooooo good

This book is just so so good. The characters are engaging and believable, the story is engrossing and leaves you needing to find out what's going to happen next, and the narration is excellent. So very very good.

gripping

Between the narrator's different voices (that suit each character) and the fast paced storyline I was hooked

Dazed and Confused

Strange confusing tale. It's either been written by an American or Americanized for a US audience in American English. Set in modern day London, Dom a "East End" boy uses no cant/slang of the region ie apples and pears for stairs, bees and honey for money etc, but uses non British expressions ie "Rookie mistake" and gotten. As there is also an American character: "Hollywood" who you'd expect to use such expressions, it just confusing. On top of this we find sidewalks and city blocks mentioned throughout. It's all made worse by the narrator's efforts to "act" all the parts somewhat over dramatically, so there is no contrast; again it's just incongruous and confusing.

The story might be better read on Kindle, as this audiobook is just awful. Gave up after 2 hours. NOT GOOD
