Curse of the Poppy

Penny Green Series, Book 5

By: Emily Organ

Narrated by: Gabrielle Baker

A woman dies in a burglary in Fitzrovia. A man is murdered in an opium den in Limehouse. Gutsy Fleet Street reporter Penny Green suspects the two deaths are connected, but how can she prove it?

The answer may lie in Whitehall where the India Office reaps the benefits of Britain's opium trade. But when Inspector James Blakely of Scotland Yard begins investigating, an unforeseen danger looms.

Soon Penny is forced to act alone and is put to the ultimate test when her quest becomes personal.

Wow

Did not see that coming! As the author illustrated in this story, the same crimes happened in earlier times as do today. Fortunately justice was found in this but a lot get away with it

Awaiting anxiously what will happen next between Penny and James. Glad Francis finally took charge

Opium trade saga

Solid story telling of murder, drugs use and corruption. Mix in a love triangle and you can't go wrong. These stories are fast pace and have a great narrator
