About this audiobook
New York Times bestselling author Amanda Quick returns with a thrilling new venture into romance and mystery, featuring the most unusual, highly compatible--undeniably combustible--pairing of Tobias March and his mesmerizing partner, Lavinia Lake.
An invitation to a country house party at Beaumont Castle provides a perfect solution to Tobias and Lavinia's most exasperating challenge: how to escape the chaos of London for a remote, relaxing--and above all romantic--retreat from prying eyes and wagging tongues. But the lovers' plans are foiled when their first cozy interlude of the weekend is disrupted by the appearance of a stunning woman from Tobias's past. Aspasia Gray's beauty is as haunting as her connection to Tobias. Her long-deceased fiancé was a friend of his--in addition to being an eccentric assassin. The mysterious nature of the bond between Tobias and Aspasia makes Lavinia more than a little uncomfortable. Especially as her first encounter with Aspasia occurs when she finds her in Tobias's bedchamber...
It seems Aspasia is seeking protection--and solace--after receiving an ominous message that eerily recalls the past. Suddenly the obstacles standing betweenTobias and Lavinia appear greater than just a little London gossip--and far more deadly.When events at the castle suggest someone is imitating the dead killer's methods, the team of Lake and March fervently pursue the investigation--and each other--as their leads take them from Society's most elegant haunts--and most discreet hideaways--to London's shadiest backstreets. As their relationship heats up, so does the intrigue. Soon Lavinia will have to employ all her talents to flummox the scoundrel who so rudely interrupted her rendezvous. And then she and Tobias can get back to more pleasurable affairs.
From the Hardcover edition.

- Rating: 3 out of 5 stars3/5I liked the first part of this and excitedly thought that this might be my favorite of the three, but then it muddled along for a while in the middle, and the end was largely a series of long explanations. It just wasn't as engaging and satisfying as I'd hoped. I do like these characters though, and have enjoyed their relationships.
- Rating: 4 out of 5 stars4/5I was sorry to let these characters go. Great romping mysteries!
- Rating: 4 out of 5 stars4/5Quick continues to channel her inner Elizabeth Peters - Lavinia Lake might as well be called Amelia Peabody (minus Egypt), while Tobias is a fair rendition of Emerson. When a killer strikes while the pair are attempting some country canoodling, the pair are once again on the hunt accompanied and assisted by faithful sidekicks Emiline and Anthony.
- Rating: 4 out of 5 stars4/5A fun early victorian romp. Tobias thinks the Momento Mori killer is dead but his calling card is appearing again with dead bodies. Lavinia and he investigate and while investigating find out about their own relationship.
