#26 : India Black and the Shadows of Anarchy - Carol Carr

(Affiliate link)


In Victorian London, India Black has all the attributes a high-class madam needs to run a successful brothel--wit, beauty, and an ability to lie with a smile. Luckily for Her Majesty's Government, all these talents also make her a first-rate spy...

India Black, full-time madam and occasional secret agent, is feeling restless, when one of Disraeli's men calls on her to meet the prime minister--alone. Even though all her previous meetings have been organized by the rakishly handsome spy French, it's been decided this is a mission India must attempt on her own.

Revolt has spread across Europe and reached the shores of England--anarchists have begun assassinating lords and earls, one by one. Now India must infiltrate the ranks of the underground group responsible for those attacks, the sinister Dark Legion. To stop their dread plot, India will go from the murkiest slums of London to the highest levels of society, uncovering secrets that threaten her very existence...

My review for book 1, India Black


Review:
This is the most interesting India Black book yet, by far! I was constantly reading to see how she'd get out of the pickle she got in.
Also glad Vincent and French are still in the story too. Vincent especially. I have to wonder what India would ever do without him. I also enjoy his presence a lot more in this story than the others. That was nice.
I wish India and French would just get it on and get it over with already though. The sexual tension between them is too much at times. Even Vincent has enough at one point.
I do look forward to more with India Black and can't wait to see her next big adventure!


5/5

REVIEW: It was weird starting off with a He-Man lookalike, Thunder the Barabarian), until I realized a character from the film was watching the cartoon in the airplane. Still, it was kind of cool to reminice about two cartoons from my childhood. So many great actors bring the film to life! What a fun story it was too! Although
