Publisher's Summary

Not since the bloody deeds of Jack the Ripper have Londoners felt such terror as that aroused by the gruesome beheadings in Hyde Park. And if newly promoted Police Superintendent Thomas Pitt does not quickly apprehend the perpetrator, he is likely to lose his own head, professionally speaking. Yet even with the help of Charlotte Pitt’s subtle investigation, the sinister violence continues unchecked. And in a shocking turn of events that nearly convinces the pair of sleuths that they have met their match, the case proves to be Pitt’s toughest ever.

Great book-reader mediocre

Prefer the reader of the previous books Davina Porter. Davina had a Nicer voice, better diction and brought the story to life!

Slow performance

It is longer than other books in this series read by other narrators because it is like it is in slow motion. If you put it at 1.2x that helps, but it seems like characters are a different speeds. And they sound like they are intoxicated when they should not be. She does have a good skill at creating different voices for different characters. The story itself is great as usual. I however will not purchase another written by this narrator. I hope I can pick up easily what has gone on in the background when I skip ahead a few books.
