Tammy Pierre is called upon to help solve a murder that appears to involve Obeah — a form of voodoo practiced in Trinidad.

Her father’s Trinidadian roots give the police reason to bring her in, but a black candle ritual offers little else to go on.

Then, as one after another victim is found, their only connection leads her to the island, a convent once used as an orphanage, and the strange figure then known as Sister Constance. On her return to London, Tammy keeps digging, despite warnings and an intimidating surveillance of her apartment.

And not all the killings fit the ritual pattern.

Can she find the killer, or killers, before someone makes good on the threats?

This audiobook was very well narrated. It is full of strong characters and the narrator did well to manage all of these.

The story itself was well written. I particularly enjoyed the jump between the various perspectives in different chapters. Tammy is a strong lead character, however there is still a level of vulnerability that’s brings a slightly softer edge to her.

I initially feared that this book might be too gruesome for me having read the blurb. I enjoy murder mysteries but can’t handle too much graphic gore. I was pleasantly surprised and found this book to be an excellent balance of detail and moderation.
I have not listened to the previous book in the serious but will definitely be seeking it out. I very much enjoyed authors style for this book.

Interesting plot well narrated
