A Case of Possession is another corker of a book by KJ Charles. Stephen and Lucien’s story continues in London. We meet Stephen’s fellow justiciars including his partner Esther, and we also meet Lucien’s friends and acquaintances from his business and his time in Shanghai.

Lucien and Stephen’s relationship grows and deepens as Stephen investigates murders that are committed through the use of giant rats. The scenes with the rats are very descriptive to the point of horrifying but so well done.  The intimate scenes are very hot. I really enjoy Charles’s writing and the worlds she creates. The historical background is obviously well researched and meticulous. 

I listened to the audiobook. Cornell Collins does another fantastic job with his interpretation and the difference between character voices. I’ve said it in other reviews, but he adds another dimension to the books.

I really enjoyed A Case of Possession and already started the following book.
