About This Audiobook

Eddie Drood has always operated in the shadows, protecting a world that will never know his name. When the Drood family's Matriarch turns up dead, Eddie finds himself thrust into an unwanted leadership role while simultaneously becoming the investigation's prime suspect. Green's fourth Secret Histories novel blends spy-thriller tension with supernatural mayhem, dropping readers into a world where ancient family duty collides with internal betrayal, and where the monsters outside the gates may be less dangerous than the ones gathered around the dinner table.

Gideon Emery brings sharp wit and dry menace to Eddie's first-person narration, capturing the character's weary competence without losing the sardonic humor that runs through Green's prose. The 12-hour runtime moves briskly, and Emery handles the story's tonal shifts between action, mystery, and dark comedy with confident control. Fans of urban fantasy will find the audio format suits Green's punchy dialogue and rapid-fire reveals particularly well.
