Publisher's Summary

Archaeologist Saul Lazenby has been all but unemployable since his disgrace during the War. Now he scrapes a living working for a rich eccentric who believes in magic. Saul knows it's a lot of nonsense...except that he begins to find himself in increasingly strange and frightening situations. And at every turn he runs into the sardonic, mysterious Randolph Glyde.

Randolph is the last of an ancient line of arcanists, commanding deep secrets and extraordinary powers as he struggles to fulfill his family duties in a war-torn world. He knows there's something odd going on with the haunted-looking man who keeps turning up in all the wrong places. The only question for Randolph is whether Saul is victim or villain.

Saul hasn't trusted anyone in a long time. But as the supernatural threat grows, along with the desire between them, he'll need to believe in evasive, enraging, devastatingly attractive Randolph. Because he may be the only man who can save Saul's life - or his soul.

Contains mature themes.

A fun romp!

The story line ran well and I enjoyed the supernatural aspect. At first I wasn't thrilled with the narrator, but after a while his voice grew on me.

Loved this performance

This was one of the first KJ Charles books I read, so I had really high hopes when I got the audiobook. I wasn't disappointed. Ruairi Carter delivers a wonderfully engaging performance. I absolutely loved the voices for both Saul and Randolph. Saul somehow became even more endearing to me, listening to this, and I already loved him so much. I'll definitely listen to this again.

Good Mystery, Un-engaging Characters

This book had all the charm of a K. J. Charles, but its characters failed to engage me. I was interested in the mystery, which kept me listening while I struggled to be drawn into Saul and Randolph's story.

I hate to say it, but the narrator didn't feel like quite the right fit for this book.

Despite my challenges with this book, I am looking forward to the next in the series.
