KJ Charles returns with another delightful Will Darling adventure, featuring Cornell Collins's engaging narration. After a visit to a nightclub with his best friend, Maisie, Will finds himself once again embroiled in intrigue. Collins's characterizations of Will and his aristocratic lover, Kim Secretan, draw out their personalities and complicated relationship as they investigate the doings of the Zodiac gang. Collins's pacing and delivery enhance the story's dry humor. Class differences—especially Will’s Northern English sensibilities—are leveraged through Collins's accent and tonal variations as the pair shift between social milieus. The dynamic duo of author and narrator bring crackling dialogue, steamy sex scenes, and a climactic ending to this Golden Age-style mystery. J.R.T.

It's been two months since Will Darling saw Kim Secretan, and he doesn't expect to see him again. What do a rough and ready soldier-turned-bookseller and a disgraced, shady aristocrat have to do with each other anyway?
But when Will encounters a face from the past in a disreputable nightclub, Kim turns up, as shifty, unreliable, and irresistible as ever. And before Will knows it, he's been dragged back into Kim's shadowy world of secrets, criminal conspiracies, and underhand dealings.
This time, though, things are underhanded even by Kim standards. This time, the danger is too close to home. And if Will and Kim can't find common ground against unseen enemies, they risk losing everything.
Contains mature themes.
