About this audiobook

The latest Arcane Society novel from New York Times- bestselling author of Running Hot and Fired Up-as she introduces her brand-new Looking Glass trilogy.

Jayne Ann Krentz follows up her highly successful Dreamlight Trilogy- written in collaboration with her two alter egos, Amanda Quick and Jayne Castle-with a brand-new story arc that begins in a secluded coastal town in northern California.

Scargill Cove is the perfect place for Fallon Jones, confirmed recluse and investigator of the paranormal. It's a hot spot, a convergence point for unusually strong currents of energy, which might explain why the town attracts misfits and drifters like moths to a flame. Now someone else has been drawn to the Cove-Isabella Valdez, on the run from some very dangerous men.

When she starts work as Fallon's assistant, Isabella impresses him by organizing his pathologically chaotic office-and doesn't bat an eye at the psychic aspect of his job. She's a kindred spirit, a sanctuary from a world that considers his talents a form of madness. But after a routine case unearths an antique clock infused with dark energy, Fallon and Isabella are dragged into the secret history of Scargill Cove and forced to fight for their lives, as they unravel a cutthroat conspiracy with roots in the Jones family business . . . and Isabella's family tree.

    This book is an enjoyable easy read. This paranormal mystery is a serviceable detective story. There is light romance with some intimate relations. Isabella and Fallon are likable heroes and are continuously on the case investigating some lost or stolen paranormal devices that can affect people's minds. I believe readers who enjoy paranormal mysteries would like this book. I have little experience with this genre, but it held my attention all the way through.The villains are somewhat simply written and the romance does not develop gradually, but instead emerges full blown in the first interactions between the two main characters.This is book 10 in a series that spans time and different characters and the author demonstrates a mastery of the material.

    Fallon Jones, a lone dangerous, protective, & sexy Paranormal Detective is working himself to exhaustion chasing down corrupt psychopaths in the small town of Scargill Cove.

    Isabella Valdez, who grew up in a family of conspiracy theory talents, has spent her life on the run and living off the grid.

    Sparks sizzle when Isabella escapes to Scargill Cove and teams up with Fallon to uncover a 22 year old mystery that could get them both killed.

    This is classic Krentz. Just the right mix of action, adventure, mystery, appearances by past arcane characters and romance. Definitely a must read!

    The beginning didn't seem to have much to do with the overall story, so I kept anticipating it going in a different direction. Other than that, an ok romance/paranormal/mystery.

    Isabelle is able to "find" things using her psi abilities. When she runs into trouble she goes to Scargill Cove to seek the help of Fallon Jones, the secretive head of J&J a psychic private investigative agency that works closely with the Arcane Society.

    Fallon is working on his newest case, trying to find the remains of Nightshade, a group of people who are using a psychic drug to enhance their powers. The drug has deadly results over time and Arcane and J&J are trying to get it stopped.

    When Isabelle shows up and starts working for Fallon they bring together two or three stories that have been swirling around this series.

    I truly enjoyed getting to see Fallon's romance, and the mystery was complicated enough that it keep me guessing.

    I read all of Krentz's books, under any of her various names, right now I'm a little behind and have several to read in my towering TBR stack. I can't wait.

    Since I had enjoyed the last book I read by Krentz, I decided to try this one, which included one of the minor characters from the previous book. I thoroughly enjoyed the mix of adventure, mystery, action, and romance between Fallon and Isabella.

    Fallon Jones has found himself an assistant in Scargill Cove... or did she find him? Isabella Valdez is running from trouble and conspiracies that only Fallon Jones will be able to untangle and protect her. In the meantime, she is bringing her own psychic skills to J & J and winning over the isolated and private Fallon. Nightshade is still operating behind the scenes and trying to cut Arcanes' ties to J & J as their detective arm and possible targeting any Jones in Arcanes' power structure. Another enjoyable book in the series of Arcane Society and 1st in The Looking Glass Trilogy.

    I enjoyed this story of love and psychic abilities. Fallon Jones has set up his offices in Scargill Cove, a spot that draws misfits to it because of a confluence of energy. Isabella Valdez is also drawn to the place. After a short time Fallon finds himself with an assistant, an assistant who understands him and together they find themselves drawn into investigating some strange artifacts. Artifacts that can kill.Isabella's past is murky though and the two of them have to overcome obstacles to get to a relationship.It's not a bad read for it's type. The plot was a bit lurchy and seemed to be unsure where it was going and who were the bad guys. But overall it drew me in and kept me reading.

    As with all her Arcane Society books, I enjoyed this one. I like everything she writes and have always been pleased with her works. Looking forward to the rest of the trilogy.

    One of the better contemporary paranormal tales from Krentz. It was a fast read and the two lead characters were interesting. The secondary characters were somewhat thin and if you hadn't read her previous novels in this series, I think you would be very confused about what is going out. Krentz is long past the really interesting, well fleshed out contemporaries that she used to write but at least the contemporaries are not so jarring as the historicals are in their inaccuracies and out of time characterizations.

    I had a hard time following the story line at the beginning because of two prologues and several flashbacks. Once I caught on, the story sorted itself out It was told without emotion though.

    Typical Krentz! Quirky characters, crisp dialog, paranormal romantic suspense. Isabella is on the run; Fallon Jones is overworked. She makes herself his assistant at J&J - paranormal investigators for the Arcane Society. They investigate to find out who is trying to kill her, who is selling paranormal weapons, and who is trying to oust the Jones family from control of the Arcane Society. Fallon's talent is seeing connections. Former Jones who had the same talent often went crazy. Fallon is reclusive and eccentric. Isabella is a finder talent who was raised by her conspiracy-theorist grandmother. However, she sees the real Fallon and falls in love with him. Great, light story! First book of a trilogy.

    Light, fizzy and sweet. Isabella and Fallon are both great characters and they make a fun, entertaining pairing.
