On an isolated mountain, a stone labyrinth provides rough shelter for a band of mercenaries. At its core lies a centuries-old mystery. But in chapter two of The Boy in the Iron Box, no secret is safe.

A concealed pit; an iron box, wrapped in chains; a statue of a boy. What unknowns await the anxious, disoriented team in this strange ruin? Night will tell.

Great book!

The book goes along at a great pace with a plot twist. D turns that keep you riveted

4 stars all around

Getting pretty interesting! I’ve decided that I do very much like the narrator. I found the atmosphere to be better in this second part and the pacing is just right. Loved that ending.

Very different story line vs most today..

Would love to hear another installment. Almost seemed as if it was based on a very old folktale. Key element were left undetermined….leaving the listener to figure out who? What? How? Leaving us with a hint at the end as to what/who was involved, but still no certainty on how it had happened. I lived the fact the listener was not sounded - it was left open for speculation.

Excellent story, great performance

I love the suspense, DelToro & Hogan never dissapoint. The characters are just fleshed out enough to understand, the dialogue is simple & effective.

Stopped at two. Not worth a longer listen

Too obvious. Too slow don’t like narrator 15 word minimum minimum minimum minimum minimum min minimum
