Dangerous to Know

Lady Emily, Book 5

By: Tasha Alexander

Narrated by: Justine Eyre

Set in the lush countryside of Normandy, France, this new novel of suspense featuring Lady Emily Hargreaves is filled with intrigue, romance, mysterious deaths, and madness.

Returning from her honeymoon with Colin Hargreaves and a near brush with death in Constantinople, Lady Emily convalesces at her mother-in-law's beautiful estate in Normandy. But the calm she so desperately seeks is shattered when, out riding a horse, she comes upon the body of a young woman who has been brutally murdered. The girl's wounds are identical to those inflicted on the victims of Jack the Ripper, who has wreaked havoc across the channel in London. Emily feels a connection to the young woman and is determined to bring the killer to justice.

Pursuing a trail of clues and victims to the beautiful medieval city of Rouen and a crumbling chateau in the country, Emily begins to worry about her own sanity: she hears the cries of a little girl she cannot find and discovers blue ribbons left in the child's wake. As Emily is forced to match wits with a brilliant and manipulative killer, only her courage, keen instincts and formidable will to win can help her escape becoming his next victim.

Brilliant story... Brilliant storyteller

I am so enjoying this series. Emily is a woman I would think I would be friends with and that makes listening all the more pleasurable.
Tasha Alexander's stories are always so well written with such good twists and turns. And Justine Eyre is an amazing storyteller... her inflections and voices are just so easy to listen to. Thank you again for coming back. Can't wait to dive into the next in series!!!

Always a great read

The murdered is not always easily dicerned. It makes for better listens. Thank you for that.

Love this series.

I enjoyed the story. The characters are addictive. Looking forward to the next in the series.

Another fun mystery

This time Emily and Colin are at his mother’s home. It seems she does not like Emily very much at all

Emily finds a murdered girl while out for a ride and the story takes off. She is still dealing with her loss and struggles.

Best story of the series so far!!!

This is the best story of the series so far!! Less Jane Eyre monotony and more lady sleuth intrigue. This story is THE reason I got into this genre, and gutted through the first 4 books after I realized it was a series.
