Detective Sergeant Aaron Fowler of the Metropolitan Police doesn’t count himself a gullible man. When he encounters a graphologist who deduces people’s lives and personalities from their handwriting with impossible accuracy, he needs to find out how the trick is done. Even if that involves spending more time with the intriguing, flirtatious Joel Wildsmith than feels quite safe.

Joel’s not an admirer of the police, but DS Fowler has the most irresistible handwriting he’s ever seen. If the policeman’s tests let him spend time unnerving the handsome copper, why not play along?

But when Joel looks at a powerful man's handwriting and sees a murderer, the policeman and the graphologist are plunged into deadly danger. Their enemy will protect himself at any cost, unless the sparring pair can come together to prove his guilt and save each other.

Not my favourite of hers, but a fun read nonetheless. And I always enjoy Collins as a narrator.

Always love KJ Charles

The tension was quite exhausting at times. I felt as though there was to be no way out of the complicated situation in which the two main characters found themselves. Clever and satisfying conclusion.

Twisting tale, beautifully told

So, longterm Charles' fan here. Her wit and turn of phrase are one of my favourite things about her works, regardless of the era or content. I have never read an author so good at describing a situation and making me guffaw in public transport, because it was just so perfectly hilarious! Now about the book. Early 20th century, two war veterans, amazing (and I still think a little magical. In my headcanon this is taking place in the magpie lord universe) skill from Joel. Pining, murder case, dastardly villains, mortal peril and food p*rn. I am not kidding, this book made me want to go out to an Indian restaurant in London again.
Overall a solid book with a good plot (less convoluted than some of her other works but it kind of helps the realism), amazing characters (I kinda wanted more from the supporting cast, as they are peak in Charles's works). 10/10.
P.S: Cornel Collins, my love, the usual brilliant voice to all my favourite books.

Another Smash Hit!

I loved everything about this! Really enjoyed the story and I didn’t want it to end. The narrator was great, and it was such a good listen. Wish there was more in line with these two like the Magpie Lord series 🩷
