On the bustling docks along the River Thames, Great Britain's merchant ships unload the treasures of the world. And here, in dank and sinister alleys, sex merchants ply their lucrative trade. The dreaded kingpin of this dark realm is Jericho Phillips, who seems far beyond the reach of the law. But when thirteen-year-old Fig is found with his throat cut, Commander William Monk of the River Police swears that Phillips will hang for this abomination. Monk's wife, Hester, draws a highly unusual guerrilla force to her husband's cause-a canny ratcatcher, a retired brothel keeper, a fearless street urchin, and a rebellious society lady. To one as criminally minded as Phillips, these folks are mere mosquitoes, to be sure. But as he will soon discover, some mosquitoes can have a deadly sting. Download and start listening now!

    " It was good. I like that there was more character development for Claudine and Squeaky Robinson. I also enjoyed seeing Rathbone in a new light. It was interesting to see him in opposition to Monk and Hester. "

  • 4 out of 54 out of 54 out of 54 out of 54 out of 5 Suevw | 1/26/2014

    " I listened to this and it was like most of anne perry's books very well written and great period piece! I'd forgotten much about Monk's character and should read some of those books I've not read between now in this series. "

  • 4 out of 54 out of 54 out of 54 out of 54 out of 5 Kaye | 1/14/2014

    " I really like all of Anne Perry's books. This one features Inspector Monk, who is married to Hester. Perry really does her research about Victorian England. "

  • 3 out of 53 out of 53 out of 53 out of 53 out of 5 Gina | 1/13/2014

    " I just read the new PD James, so my standards may have been much higher, but this was a solid effort by Perry. "

  • 3 out of 53 out of 53 out of 53 out of 53 out of 5 Clare | 12/19/2013

    " This book was not my favorite of Anne Perry's. Generally I love every book she writes but the subject of this book (the child sex trade in Victorian England) is very depressing. It's not Perry's fault but I found this book to be both enlightening and sad. "

  • 4 out of 54 out of 54 out of 54 out of 54 out of 5 Mary | 12/15/2013

    " This is one of the best Monk books in years. The story was exciting and the characters were well developed. Looking forward to see where Perry will take her characters next. "

  • 4 out of 54 out of 54 out of 54 out of 54 out of 5 Steph | 10/31/2013

    " Good book in the Monk series. I am curious about the new direction the series seems headed. "

  • 4 out of 54 out of 54 out of 54 out of 54 out of 5 Jan | 9/10/2013

    " This is a terrific "can't put it down" mystery story. I love Anne Perry's writing, and this was one of the most exciting and satisfying of her Monk series. "

  • 3 out of 53 out of 53 out of 53 out of 53 out of 5 Alyson | 8/29/2013

    " I really like the characters of Monk and Hester. "

  • 4 out of 54 out of 54 out of 54 out of 54 out of 5 Carolyn | 9/5/2012

    " This is the 18th novel in the series, and is definitely one of the better ones. Perry has tended to get a bit maudlin in the last few, but this one was grittier. "

  • 3 out of 53 out of 53 out of 53 out of 53 out of 5 Linda | 7/26/2012

    " I think I may have enjoyed this book more if I had read the one before it. It seemed this story was a sort of continuation of that one. It was easy to catch on and get up to speed. What I like about Monk is that he changes quite a bit throughout the series and you continue to see that here. "

    " I skipped the first 80 pages--dull, and who cares. I'm sure she thought it would be a nice change to start with the trial first, but when you don't care about the characters yet, it's just tedious. "

  • 4 out of 54 out of 54 out of 54 out of 54 out of 5 Sandra | 3/22/2010

    " Anne Perry write wonderfully. This latest in the Monk series while a bit shorter than usual, contains all the features of her past books. Great character development, twisting story line, and a moral dilemma. "
