The Night Raven ~ Audiobook Review

Lydia has always known she has no power, especially next to her infamous and more-than-slightly dodgy family. Which is why she carved her own life as a private investigator far away from London. When a professional snafu forces her home, the head of the family calls in a favour, and Lydia finds herself investigating the disappearance of her cousin, Maddie. 

Soon, Lydia is neck-deep in problems: her new flatmate is a homicidal ghost, the intriguing, but forbidden, DCI Fleet is acting in a distinctly unprofessional manner, and tensions between the old magical families are rising. For seventy-five years, a truce between the four families has held strong, but could the disappearance of Maddie Crow be the thing to break it?

My rating ~ 4 bites



Lydia is powerless in a power filled family. Or is she? By the end of the book I was having doubts that she truly had no power. She has something. Exactly what is still unknown.


This is an entertaining read. Lydia’s investigative path is fun to follow. There are great characters and weird happenings as well as danger and mystery. I don’t particularly care for how Lydia treats the ghost in her temporary lodgings. Honestly, why be such a bitch? Especially since he’s been so helpful. At least she thaws towards the end. Otherwise I might not want to continue despite being intrigued about her power, the families, and DCI Fleet.
