About this listen

Archaeologist Lowe Magnusson is packing something everyone wants. The djed amulet, a priceless Egyptian artifact, will fetch Lowe a hefty paycheck from one of San Francisco's wealthiest. But when the handsome Swede runs into his patron's uptight daughter, what he once considered easy money becomes maddeningly complicated.

Cursed with deadly spirits as her constant companions, curator Hadley Bacall must keep calm to hold her dangerous specters at bay and prevent them from lashing out at anything - or anyone. Trouble is, Lowe is driving her crazy, but her father needs the artifact he's transporting. While Hadley can feel the amulet's power, she can't fathom the destruction - or the desire - it's about to stir up.

Fun and Touching

The first book in the series was a nice (and sexual) little paranormal story and I liked it. This one is better, I think. I like the growth in the characters. The supernatural elements are exciting and I wish there even more. Good narration too.

wonderful

I loved this book, it really was wonderful. Lowe and Hadley were well developed characters both flawed and that really helped you care about what was happening to them.

This book for me unfortunately was not as good as the first book (Bitter Spirits) for a few reasons. First was that the big shocking twist wasn't a shock or a twist at all. I knew exactly what was going on way before it wax even hinted at. Second was that the last few chapters felt like she didn't care to give the story the strong ending it deserved. They were anticlimactic.

I said this about the narration for the first book and I will say it again with this one. These books desperately need male narrator for the male parts. don't get me wrong Amy does a wonderful job her voices are great and she really tried. however, not having a male and female narrator makes it hard to know who's point of view you are in sometimes. She uses her regular speaking voice for anything that isn't dialogue between characters even in Lowes point of view and it just didn't work for me.

All in all this is a wonderful book and is absolutely worth the credit. I wish the third book was on here!
