Once upon a time, a boy from a noble family fell in love with a girl from the gutter. It went as badly as you’d expect.

Seventeen years later, Susan Lazarus is a renowned detective, and Templeton Lane is a jewel thief. She’s tried to arrest him, and she’s tried to shoot him. They’ve never tried to talk.

Then Templeton is accused of a vicious double murder. Now there’s a manhunt out for him, the ports are watched, and even his best friends have turned their backs. If he can’t clear his name, he’ll hang.

There’s only one person in England who might help Templeton now...assuming she doesn’t want to kill him herself.

Have to agree with other reviewers here in that the female reader kills the story. I was relieved every time a new chapter started with the male voice.

Great book, great and bad reading

WARNING: this novel contains HETEROS and their ANTICS. I assume KJ Charles was unwell or something. Story still good, she is a brilliant author, the 2nd narrator isn't as bad as all the other reviews say but is a little grating, especially when voicing James and definitely better at 1.2 speed.

Warning:

Narrators who should never have been teamed up for this book. Cornell Collins was excellent in Book 1 Any Old Diamonds and excellent here and could very well have carried the entire story in Book 2 Gilded Cage with total success alone. The story did not benefit from the 2nd narrator: Victoria Aston who made errors in pronunciations and her toffee nosed accent for James was just OTT as if she hadn't bothered to listen to Book 1 to research the character. Despite this, the story was enjoyable, the MCs were interesting (but not likeable), there was drama and tension. The bedroom scenes were passionless, badly written and cringeworthy, voiced by Ms Aston. It was nice to revisit Gerry and Alec, and to hear of their efforts to continue their affair with Gerry going straight. Sukey and James look to be heading for a kitchen sink drama, as she refuses to take his name, title and position. Over all impression: it was OK.

I absolutely love this story and cannot fault it for the drama, angst and exquisiteness. Nothing hits me harder than childhood friends turn lovers turn enemies turn lovers again. I knew I wanted their story since Any Old Diamonds and this had the angst, hurt and working together to solve a mystery. Extremely capable heroine and the hero is just there to be pretty.

I found this an odd story, I expected more twists and turns. Cornell Colins’s narration was brilliant as usual but it jarred against having a second ‘voice’ for the same characters.

Having 2 narrators didn’t work
