Because this audio book was part of the Audible Escape romance package, I shouldn't have been surprised that it was too much a romance for me. Instant love. Woebegone damsels in distress. It read like a Victorian overwrought novel. It was melodramatic and most improbably.

Very interesting until the end, when things wrap up too easily. Mystery story of a young girl living in her guardian's house. He dies and it's discovered that a man named Chadwick wants her, but an Italian opera singer gets her instead, setting off a tale of revenge and background trauma.
