À propos de cet audio

London, 1850: A young Charles Lenox struggles to make a name for himself as a detective...without a single case. Scotland Yard refuses to take him seriously and his friends deride him for attempting a profession at all. But when an anonymous writer sends a letter to the paper claiming to have committed the perfect crime - and promising to kill again - Lenox is convinced that this is his chance to prove himself.

The writer's first victim is a young woman whose body is found in a naval trunk, caught up in the rushes of a small islets in the middle of the Thames. With few clues to go on, Lenox endeavors to solve the crime before another innocent life is lost. When the killer's sights are turned toward those whom Lenox holds most dear, the stakes are raised and Lenox is trapped in a desperate game of cat and mouse.

In the tradition of Sherlock Holmes, this newest mystery in the Charles Lenox series pits the young detective against a maniacal murderer who would give Professor Moriarty a run for his money.

I hate when good mystery writers try to be romance writers...this book would have been even better without the romance aspect. I enjoyed how it wrapped up, but wondering what book two will be like.

Good but...

I’d not heard of this author but this prequel is filled with a satisfying mystery and characters you can care about. Narration is above average as well.

Nice surprise

It so happens that this is my first book in the Charles Lenox series. I was unsure whether a period piece would hold my interest. I must say that after 3 or 4 chapters my interest was piqued and I enjoyed the book a lot. The narration by James Langton is very good.

Nicely done
