About this listen

When crusading lawyer Vikram Pandey sets out in search of a missing youth, his investigations take him to Holywell Street, London's most notorious address. He expects to find a disgraceful array of sordid bookshops. He doesn't expect one of them to be run by the long-lost friend whose disappearance and presumed death he's been mourning for 13 years.

Gil Lawless became a Holywell Street bookseller for his own reasons, and he's damned if he's going to apologize or listen to moralizing from anyone. Not even Vikram; not even if the once-beloved boy has grown into a man who makes his mouth water.

Now the upright lawyer and the illicit bookseller need to work together to track down the missing youth. And on the way, they may even learn if there's more than just memory and old affection binding them together....

Contains mature themes.

I just wish it was longer!

KJ Charles is at it again with another wonderful, feel-good story that keeps you engaged from start to finish.
I hope to see more characters of colour from her in the future!

Enjoyable read

not my favourite from this author by far but still a gorgeous book nonetheless, it was dark and light at the same time and I feel by the end it had a great balance. Worth the read if you enjoy queer historical romance with a splash of mystery.

Interesting second-chances mystery-romance!

It’s 1875, and London social justice lawyer Vikram Pandey has been commissioned by the parents of a missing boy. His enquiries take him to a disreputable bookseller of pornography in Holywell Street, only to find it’s run by an estranged friend and lover from his private school days. Life has treated Gil Lawless badly, wrenching him suddenly out of school and a promising career path, and dumping him onto the streets to survive as best he can. As the two men team up to track down the missing boy, they are reminded of the things they treasured about each other. It might have been the act of finishing one book and immediately starting another, but I found this historical second-chances romance novella hard to get into at first. Over time my feelings changed and it really drew me in. I especially liked that both boys’ families originated from the Subcontinent and their “us-against-the-world” feelings for each other. Actor Vikas Adam did a fabulous job on audio narration, I’ll keep an eye out for more by him! (Currently free on the Audible Plus catalogue)

Great Heart Wrenching Story

Don’t let the length fool you! It’s a great story that had me shed a tear or two. Also humanizes workers in an industry most look down upon. Also I like that MCs were both POC. Loved it!
