The Gilded Lily

Nicole Rayburn Historical Mysteries, Book 5

By: Irina Shapiro

Narrated by: Jess Nahikian

Every old house has its secrets, so it comes as no surprise when a relic of a noble Victorian family is discovered in the new home of historical author Nicole Rayburn and her husband Kyle. Curious about the lovely young woman in the sepia photograph, Nicole delves into the history of the family and stumbles on a long-forgotten mystery.

Lily Redmond, daughter of Scotland Yard Superintendent Jason Redmond, vanished without a trace in the spring of 1888. Determined to figure out what happened to Lily, Nicole joins forces with renowned historian Quinn Allenby, whose unique psychic ability might also be required to solve a more recent crime that bears striking similarities to Lily’s disappearance.

Great Book!

The merging of the 3 storyline’s was fantastic!
Hoping to see more books with Nicole and Quinn teaming up!

Loved it

I loved the way the author intertwined her other series with this one. I adored reading this book

YES! YES! YES! AND YES!

I mean, where should I begin without spoiling some wonderful surprises!?!? I won't! However, I'll say this, being a diehard Irina Shapiro fan and having read all of her books from other series, THIS one is my ultimate favorite! It's as if she knew 10 years ago this particular book would one day happen! So beautifully braided and woven together. This is a classic Shapiro novel with bitter-sweet (instead of gut-wrenching sad) tears at the end. I cannot wait for the future of this series. I'm literally sad it's over and that I have to wait another year or two to have a reunion with some of my favorite characters ever. Bravo! Encore! Do it again! I'll be waiting not-so-patiently for Book 6!

awesome!

this was a good book and I really enjoyed it. this book kept me interested because I've read the other two series also with this one. the narrator did a great job.

I could not stop listening!

An amazing story that grabs you from beginning to end. I could not make myself stop listening. Exceptional storytelling!
