About this listen

When Nicole visits Stiles Castle, the stately home of Lady Caroline Seaton, she doesn’t expect to stumble upon a centuries-old mystery hidden in the noble family’s genealogical tree. Once she finds that some vital details have been removed from the ancestral records, Nicole can’t refuse her friend’s plea to discover the truth and help her save the floundering family business.

Unearthing the origins of Caroline’s elusive Tudor ancestor proves trickier than Nicole anticipated, but the ancient secrets that are revealed are just as incendiary as the decades-old lies that a simple DNA test has exposed within Nicole and Kyle’s own family.

Will this be the case that changes their lives forever?

I absolutely loved this instalment of Nicole and Kyle. Can't wait for the next book! I love how relatable Nicole and Kyle are and you find yourself invested in their lives. Love a good Irina Shapiro book that you can forget about your hard day whilst reading.

Another one in this series ruined by the narrator. Lots of cringe worthy mispronunciations throughout and it seems she try's to sound posh but then say's things like, tmorra rather than tomorrow. Also she often fades to a whisper at the end of chapters which means you have to increase the volume to hear.
So I will forgo any other books with is narrator, thankfully the other one's I've listened toby this author the narrator have so far been good.

Poor Narration

I quite enjoyed the story - maybe not as much as earlier books. However, the narrator continues to irritate my senses. Incorrectly pronunciation of many words and some of the “silly” voices for some characters - for example, Hannah.

Dreadful narrating

This is a confusing book - it seems to be a mystery, but because it's weak, historical information is 'thrown in' along the way. For me, the narration ruined whatever might have been interesting. The 'too posh' British accent is unnecessary; then along the way there are words (eg castle) pronounced with a regional accent or an Australian accent (project). I just couldn't finish this book and wouldn't get another by the same author or narrator.

Awful!
