À propos de cet audio

London, 1887. As the city prepares to celebrate Queen Victoria's golden jubilee, Veronica Speedwell is marking a milestone of her own. After burying her spinster aunt, the orphaned Veronica is free to resume her world travels in pursuit of scientific inquiry - and the occasional romantic dalliance. As familiar with hunting butterflies as she is fending off admirers, Veronica wields her butterfly net and a sharpened hatpin with equal aplomb, and with her last connection to England now gone, she intends to embark upon the journey of a lifetime. But fate has other plans, as Veronica discovers when she thwarts her own abduction with the help of an enigmatic German baron with ties to her mysterious past. Promising to reveal in time what he knows of the plot against her, the baron offers her temporary sanctuary in the care of his friend Stoker - a reclusive natural historian as intriguing as he is bad-tempered. But before the baron can deliver on his tantalizing vow to reveal the secrets he has concealed for decades, he is found murdered. Suddenly Veronica and Stoker are forced to go on the run from an elusive assailant, wary partners in search of the villainous truth.

Charming characters, exciting adventures, spunky heroine, dashing but cranky love interest.

The narrator is fantastic at bringing it to life!

Delightfully fun!

I loved this story. Veronica is the best female character I've read/listened to in a novel in a long time. I wish Stoker's voice was done differently, but it is still an amazing performance. I can't wait to experience the rest of the series!

So much fun!!

Enjoyed the story. Veronica Speedwell is a female character who can take care of herself. She grows throughout the story and realizes she doesn’t have to do it alone, hopefully making her next adventure that more interesting.

Loved it!

Must listen for anyone Who likes Victorian suspense/adventure such as Sherlock Holmes. Lovely narrator with a great variety of characters she glided easily from one to another without pause.

Listen to it twice!

I really enjoyed the narrator. She did a great job of keeping on the voice is different and her reading Pace was good. There is some fun little twist and turns in the plot. One aspect of the plot I think most people guess towards the beginning but the way it plays out is satisfactory. There are stolen glances to add a little spark. It will be interesting to see some of these characters reappear and future stories and learn more about them.

there are times where the main character has that very academic standoffishness that you also see in Sherlock Holmes but like Sherlock she is caring towards other people and in her case she also comes across a little more independent and standoffish due to being raised as a foundling child.

a nice start to Adventure series.
