About this listen

Levi Black has mostly recovered from the events of a year ago. The only lingering effects are that he’s much more well-known in York than he’d like to be, and he’s a lot more cautious about walking around his house naked.

However, those events brought him the capricious and fascinating Blue, so he’s not complaining. On the contrary, he’s happy, in love, and looking forward to Blue finally moving in with him. And if sometimes he wonders what Blue sees in a boring cartoonist, he keeps that to himself.

Blue Billings is finally ready to throw off the memories of his past and move in with the person who means the most in the world to him. His psychic abilities have grown in the last year to his mentor Tom's consternation, but Blue is determined to look on the bright side. He’s also focused on ignoring all the warning signs that he’s received lately.

However, even deeply buried secrets have a way of rising to the surface. And when a surprise from Blue’s past turns up and draws them away to a lonely house on the Yorkshire moors, Levi and Blue must fight for their survival once again.

From best-selling author Lily Morton comes the second book in the Black & Blue series. The books are intended to be listened to in order.

I love this series, and I love the author.

We meet Blue and Levi again after a year away from them, and Ohh my, I loved this book just as much as I did the first one.

We get to meet some of the old characters and lots of new ones as they go looking for ghosts in a stately manor. But things are not what they seem. Great story.

The English humour in this book makes you smile most of the time—excellent writing.

Joel Leslie did wonders with the characters accents, posh English and then Irish accents. Easy to listen to. I did speed up the narration like usual to 1.35 on audible.

I loved this audiobook! I am not usually one for real spooky ghost stories, but this one had me enthralled. I had planned to just listen for a couple hours, but I ended up listening to the whole thing in one sitting, riveted to my seat. And when I say real spooky, it was! It brought back memories of the movie The Shining with Jack Nicholson, as I wondered what was real, what was a dream, and what was spectral influence. The MCs Levi and Blue are fantastic, and I loved the mix of story, personal uncertainties and (light) angst, and steamy sexy times. There is well-placed snark and humor, too. I loved Tom and his wisdom, guidance, and biting humor. The other secondary characters all had individual and independent characters, too, whether you loved, hated, or despised them. They weren't just filler. I am really eager for more stories and to learn more about Levi and Blue.

The narration by Joel Leslie is fantastic. He gives unique and fitting voices for each character and his voice really sets the mood.

I received a free copy of this audiobook and am voluntarily leaving this honest review.

Incredible...exciting, suspenseful, scary, sexy

Narrator Joel Leslie delivered a dark and spooky performance. Listeners who are fans of his narrations will not be disappointed, but be pleasantly surprised by this second book of the Black and Blue series. Although a bit predictable, it, still took me on a wonderful adventure. It was packed with intimate feelings of vulnerability between Blue and Levi, making the protagonists very relatable and in turn lovable.

The author has the amazing ability to build broken worlds and fill them with damaged secondary characters. I loved the humor mixed with the uncertain undertones of darkness. The dark mysterious and oppressive feelings of anticipation hang heavy in the air, it loomed in the background.

I do recommend this audiobook

Happy Listening

It is Awesome

Words fail me… ghostly abbots, goolish mementos, fear and over riding love. Okay and some vivid bedroom… or not so much “bed”room… scenes, but all making up the life and love of the two foolhardy hero’s. Hopefully not their deaths though….!

Ooooohhhh!!!!!

I confess to being a fan of Lily Morton to start with. She is an an 'insta-click' author for me because I know what I am going to get, fantastic MC's, strong supporting cast and brilliant story telling.

But on this occasion she has take the story telling to a whole other level. I listened to this book in a single sitting (well not quite sitting, there was a fair amount of dog walking, hoovering and washing up done too 😉) I was totally invested in the story from the start - and there is alot going on in this book.

One thing I really enjoyed about 'The Quiet House' was the fact that the story wasn't totally focused on the relationship between Levi and Blue(in fact in my opinion, this is a pretty low angst listen) what I got was a rollicking good, suspenseful ghost story. There were some pretty scary bits, but with the awesome Morton brand of snark that we have grown to love 😊

The narration was devastatingly good from Joel Leslie. This story required a range of accents which were all on point.
Joel uses the fantastic story telling quality of his voice to really bring the story to life.
I felt a connection to the characters immediately.

This is a first class listen, proving again that the team of Lily Morton and Joel Leslie is unbeatable. Definitely worth your time and money/credit 😊

Bring on book 3 please!!! xx

Just.... Wow!
