A Modest Independence

By: Mimi Matthews

Narrated by: Alex Wyndham

"Fans of the series will enjoy exploring secondary characters' lives and the truly heroic compromises Tom makes to be with the woman he loves." (Library Journal)

He needed peace....

Solicitor Tom Finchley has spent his life using his devious intellect to solve the problems of others. As for his own problems, they're nothing that a bit of calculated vengeance can't remedy. But that's all over now. He's finally ready to put the past behind him and settle down to a quiet, uncomplicated life. If only he could find an equally uncomplicated woman.

She wanted adventure....

Former lady's companion Jenny Holloway has just been given a modest independence. Now, all she wants is a bit of adventure. A chance to see the world and experience life far outside the restrictive limits of Victorian England. If she can discover the fate of the missing Earl of Castleton while she's at it, so much the better.

From the gaslit streets of London to the lush tea gardens of colonial India, Jenny and Tom embark on an epic quest - and an equally epic romance. But even at the farthest edges of the British Empire, the past has a way of catching up with you....

Just ok

Drags on too long. Narrator uses a whisper voice for basically all the characters, which is annoying. I stuck it out, but this was definitely not my favorite.

It only gets better

I absolutely love this series and I love Alex Wyndham's performance! I've never been disappointed in a book by Mimi Matthews!

The adventure of a lifetime

This amazing book seems like an adventure to fine a missing someone, but in actuality it was a journey to discover the truth on one's heart and stepping out into the unknown to get it. What a excellent audio adventure. I highly suggest and recommend

Dislike the narrator.

While story is ok. Preferred the first of series best of all. And it had a different narrator.
The whispering female voices. And the fact Jenny’s dialogue always went up at the end of the sentence drove me crazy. Won’t be listening to any more of these.
