WHO CRIES FOR THE LOST Sebastian St. Cyr, Book 18

Narrator Jenny Sterlin performs this convoluted mystery of spies and murders that revolve around the Peninsula Campaigns of the Napoleonic Wars. It's June 1815. Aristocrat Sebastian St. Cyr, Viscount Devlin, teams up with Irish surgeon Paul Gibson after Gibson examines the mutilated corpse of Major Miles Sedgewick, a spy for Britain and a bigamist. When more corpses turn up, signs point to Cabrera, the infamous prison island. Sterlin smoothly voices accents that range from crisp aristocratic tones and Irish brogues to Cockney accents and melodic French syllables. Sterlin's graceful narration sweeps listeners into this macabre tale of death, revenge, and misdirection as the multitude of clues is analyzed by Devlin and Gibson and the killer is revealed at last.
