About this listen
A slow-burning romance and a chilling mystery bind two singular men in the suspenseful first book of a new Victorian series from K. J. Charles.
Lodging-house keeper Clem Talleyfer prefers a quiet life. He's happy with his hobbies, his work - and especially with his lodger Rowley Green, who becomes a friend over their long fireside evenings together. If only neat, precise, irresistible Mr. Green were interested in more than friendship....
Rowley just wants to be left alone - at least until he meets Clem, with his odd, charming ways and his glorious eyes. Two quiet men, lodging in the same house, coming to an understanding...it could be perfect. Then the brutally murdered corpse of another lodger is dumped on their doorstep and their peaceful life is shattered. Now Clem and Rowley find themselves caught up in a mystery, threatened on all sides by violent men, with a deadly London fog closing in on them. If they're to see their way through, the pair must learn to share their secrets - and their hearts.

Good story

The setting is quite interesting (taxidermy! music hall!) and the romance is simple, slow building and really, really consensual, which makes the story intimate but at certain points straining (to use an uglier expression, it drags on). Perhaps this one is just not for me; I am just more drawn to the heart-wrenching excitement and fast pace in her other books. One thing I must point out, however, is the pace: it is so slow that into half of the book I feel nothing has happened—the romance, to be honest, is already there right at the beginning.
The narrator could not be found fault with, although I find his choice of some recurring characters’ voices a bit strange and quite unexpected.
Okay but bland and slow

This beautiful story drew me right in, to all its subtleties, nuances, like a fine watercolor being brought to life before my inner eyes. And even better, it was also challenging, frustrating and painful to experience parts of the journey, which just added to it's overall charm.
Rowley and Clem's relationship was a gem of a literary creation, and there was an almost intimate privilege in seeing into their connection. As someone who has lived and worked with people who are at various points on the spectrum of learning needs ( as is everyone to a certain extent, to be clear!), it's so refreshing to have a character like Clem being given the space to be a fully present human, with all his needs and aspects honoured and respected, particularly his sexuality - it's too often the case that people further along the spectrum get automatically de-sexualised, reduced to tropes or seen as lacking the capacity to express or experience aspects of being human that society deems the realm of ' normal people'.
The story drew me in right away and I really look forward to getting the next books in the series to see how it all pans out!
Blew me away...
