Summary
Escape into the enchanting world of The Watchmaker of Filigree Street. This extraordinary sequel transports listeners to Japan, where time, destiny and love collide to electrifying effect
'A Japan that never was, a future lost, ghosts that are not dead ... not even a partial list of ingredients can do justice to this wonderful cake of a book ... A time-defying thriller' ROBIN HOBB
For Thaniel Steepleton, an unexpected posting to Tokyo can’t come at a better moment. The London fog has made him ill and doctor’s orders are to get out.
His brief is strange: the staff at the British Legation have been seeing ghosts, and his first task is to find out what’s going on. But staying with his closest friend Keita Mori in Yokohama, Thaniel starts to experience ghostly happenings himself. For reasons he won’t say, Mori is frightened. Then he vanishes.
Meanwhile, something strange is happening in a frozen labour camp in northern Japan. Takiko Pepperharrow, an old friend of Mori’s, must investigate.
As ghosts appear across Tokyo and the weather turns bizarrely electrical, Thaniel grows convinced that it all has something to do with Mori’s disappearance – and that Mori might be in far more trouble than any of them first thought.

Another Extraordinary Book!!
What a superb sequel to Watchmaker of Filigree Street. I am so so pleased I downloaded this straight after I had finished the first book. They are linked and follow on beautifully. This author is beyond anything I have read before. I was so pleasantly surprised, I read the first just because I liked the title and thought I would give it a go. I am just blown away at the depth of the writing, the plots, the characters and above all the storyline. Inside the world of this book is fantastic it immerses you totally and leaves you wanting more. I cannot recommend this book highly enough.

Loved it.
I have really enjoyed this book, possibly even more than the first one. I just wish it had lasted longer.
I am keeping my fingers crossed for more from this author and a third in this series.
The narrator is very easy to listen to, with a lovely voice and clear speech.
Highly recommended.

An instant love
As much as I loved The Watchmaker of Filigree Street, I ended up loving the sequel even better. Fantastic imagery, descriptions of Japanese setting, culture, food, houses! Superb! The story is beyond intriguing, accompanied by Pulley's typical humour and palpably real depictions of the moments of a heartbreak. I thoroughly appreciated beautiful inputs on Japanese folklore and history. An absolute gem of a book that made me fall in love with Japan, start cooking Japanese dishes and googling "gorgeous Japanese men", so I could silently daydream.

Great follow up to the first book
wonderful narrator, enticing story, slightly repetitive writing style. If you've read the first book and enjoyed it you'll also enjoy this one.

Loved it
I read one of Pulley's other books and liked it, but didn't get pulled in like I did with this one. The narration was pretty perfect, and added to drawing you in to the story and characters. This might be one of the few books I revisit in future.

beautiful sequel
I didn't think that the watchmaker of filagree street could be followed but she's done it! I can see myself listening to them both again and again... now I'm just praying for a third. Definitely worth a listen for the story and the performance, Thomas Judd is my favourite voice artist and he's perfect reading this book

Really enjoyable - highly recommended!
Entertaining from start to end - recommend listening to 'The Watchmaker of Filigree Street' first, although I think it would make sense anyway.

Gets much better towards the end
I enjoyed listening to this book, and in particular like the mix of real and surreal as being perfectly plausible. The story meandered a bit in the first half but it's worth persevering as it really picked it up for me in the second half. The narrator did a great job and worked well with the author's intentions with the language. There's no attempt at fake Japanese accents but instead uses English accents to showcase the difference in class and stature, which is refreshing.
