About this listen

A slow-burning romance and a chilling mystery bind two singular men in the suspenseful first book of a new Victorian series from K. J. Charles.

Lodging-house keeper Clem Talleyfer prefers a quiet life. He's happy with his hobbies, his work - and especially with his lodger Rowley Green, who becomes a friend over their long fireside evenings together. If only neat, precise, irresistible Mr. Green were interested in more than friendship....

Rowley just wants to be left alone - at least until he meets Clem, with his odd, charming ways and his glorious eyes. Two quiet men, lodging in the same house, coming to an understanding...it could be perfect. Then the brutally murdered corpse of another lodger is dumped on their doorstep and their peaceful life is shattered. Now Clem and Rowley find themselves caught up in a mystery, threatened on all sides by violent men, with a deadly London fog closing in on them. If they're to see their way through, the pair must learn to share their secrets - and their hearts.

Another good story though perhaps not the best in the series. The narrator is superb.

Entertaining

It's always nervewracking when you start an audio of a book you love, but Matthew Davies has done an incredible job and I almost love it more than the written version. Superb. Cannot recommend highly enough.

Utterly wonderful

Great story. Only wish Clem hadn't been so wet. He made up for it later.

Really enjoyed it

I hadn't realised the Sins of The Cities series had an interconnected plotline (each book focuses on different characters, so I thought they were standalones with connected characters), but actually really liked having more time for the plot to develop, alongside the romantic storylines. I liked the way Clem and Rowley's relationship started very early on, but it's established that they have a previous connection starting before the events of the book begin, so it works. I wasn't sure about the narration at first, but it actually really works for the time period the book is set in somehow. Overall a nice blend of romance, drama, intrigue and immersive historical setting.

Great start to the series
