About this listen

In this first part of her Gothic mystery trillogy, best-selling author Joyce Carol Oates introduces Xavier Kilgarvan, a romantic hero and amateur detective. He must discover who has murdered an innocent babe while it slept in his mother’s arms.

This turn-of-the-century tale of monstrous deeds and heart-stopping suspense will leave you eagerly looking for the next Kilgarvan case.

Great listen

I could not stop listening. I loved how the story unfolded with jumps in time and perspective. Sometimes told from a perspective on a single character and sometimes from the “village gossip.” Very rich female characters.
