Alchemy, Demons, and Deadly Secrets!

At an archaeological dig in a remote area of Russia/Ukraine, lurks horrors that define evil. Not only are students coming up missing and dead, but mystical connections to knights, Tsar Nicholas and Alexandra, and Rasputin, the Mad Monk will be unearthed. Michael Rempart discovers that the woman he loves may still be alive! Rempart’s action-packed hunt for the truth and his long-lost love will be a race against the clock.

The author, Joanne Pence weaves a complex story that connects different worlds, people, and alchemy together for a riveting action-packed thriller. The characters are well developed providing valuable insight into the unfolding story. Pence’s attention to detail of historic events/people and blending them into an exciting fictional story is masterfully done. The conclusion was solid as were the plot twists.

The narrator, Bolton Marsh spoke with clarity, appropriate pacing, and captured the tone of each character. His voices were distinct, and his enunciation was clear. His performance was smooth and appropriately reflected the storyline.

Although this is book 4 in a series, it can be listened to as a stand-alone. I had not heard any of the other books and still found it easy to follow this storyline.

The production and quality of this audiobook were perfect. I encountered no issues; it was clear and crisp.
