About this listen

After losing his parents in the Floating Castle Incident, the sensitive and mannered Chris Buckley has spent six years raising his magically talented little sister, Rosemary, on the savings that his once-wealthy family left behind. But that money is drying up, and Chris finds himself with no choice but to seek out work in Darrington City as it spirals into a depression. The only employer willing to consider his empty resume is Olivia Faraday, the manic Deathsniffer. Olivia's special magical gift gives her a heightened intuition which makes her invaluable in hunting down murderers.

When a Duchess of the mysterious Old Blooded Nobility calls on Olivia to solve the mystery of her dead husband, Chris finds himself tangled in Olivia Faraday's daily life and unable to extract himself from the macabre questions of the investigation. His involvement grows more complicated as political forces in Darrington close around Rosemary, seeing her as a tool that can be used to end the depression at the cost of her freedom - or even her life.

if you listen to audio books to get you through boring tasks like weeding or ironing or window washing this is an ok book . it has a well imagined slightly alternative world, some interesting characters, a few mysteries and a couple of reasonable action scenes, and almost enough to keep you listening. however, if you need to be kept awake while driving long distances or distracted while exercising this is not the book for you. it goes on and on and on and on. would make an excellent old fashioned readers digest condensed book!
