London, 1914. Lily's visions could stop a killer... if she'll trust a reclusive aristocrat with her darkest secret.

A monster stalks the gaslit streets of Edwardian London, draining the blood of the city's mediums. Lily Albright knows who's next.

Lily is plagued by visions of the future she can never change. When a mysterious fiend threatens someone she loves, she's determined this time will be different.

But she can't do it alone. To save a life, Lily must reveal her darkest secrets to someone she has little reason to trust—the reclusive Lord Strangford, a man haunted by his own unusual powers.

From the glittering galleries of Bond Street to the rookeries of Southwark, Lily and Strangford plunge into a dark conspiracy that lies at the heart of England's rising eugenics movement.

To thwart it, Lily must face a past rife with betrayal—and embrace the power she has spent her entire life trying to escape.

First in a gripping historical fantasy series narrated by twenty-year acting veteran Alex Picard.

The London Charismatics

The Fire in the Glass: (The London Charismatics, Book 1)

A dangerous prophecy threatens Edwardian London... and it begins with a murder.

Lily Albright can see the future, and it looks like hell.

In an England on the brink of war, Lily is plagued by psychic visions of the cataclysmic destruction of London. An ancient prophecy is coming to fruition, and it starts with the gruesome discovery of a corpse in the sewers.

To save her city, Lily must untangle a web of conspiracy and violence. She'll need the help of all of her fellow Charismatics—the men and women who know "the impossible things". That includes the enigmatic Lord Strangford, whose ability to see into the darkest corners of Lily's soul threatens to tear their relationship apart.

From the gaslamps and gutters of the Limehouse to the champagne-soaked ballrooms of St. John's Wood, Lily races to expose a plot that could bring the British empire to its knees. But changing fate and preventing an apocalypse will put Lily's charismatic powers to the ultimate test.

Jacquelyn Benson continues The London Charismatics with another supernatural historical fantasy full of deadly mystery and arcane powers, narrated by twenty-year acting veteran Alex Picard. Pick up The Shadow of Water and return to the dark, mystical streets of Edwardian England.

The Shadow of Water: (The London Charismatics, Book 2)

This audiobook also includes the bonus novella A Wrath of Sparrows.

As World War I rages across Europe, a military officer is brutally murdered in a remote English country house. Lord Strangford is the only suspect.

To clear his name, Lily must unravel the bizarre secrets that surround the corpse. It's a quest that takes her from the besieged Yorkshire coast to the heart of the empire as a brilliant and relentless police inspector haunts her every move.

But the dead man isn't who he seemed to be. The search for truth—and the real killer—plunges Lily into a game of secrets tied to the highest echelons of the government. To expose the heart of it, she must pull together friends scattered by loss and conflict, pushing the limits of an occult power she's far from understanding.

The fate of the war might just hang in the balance...along with the life of the man Lily loves.

Bridge of Ash is the thrilling continuation of The London Charismatics historical fantasy series, narrated by 20 year acting veteran Alex Picard.

Bridge of Ash: (The London Charismatics, Book 3)

An arcane horror emerges from battle and blood. To stop it, Lily must risk becoming everything she fears.

In a Europe devastated by four years of war, a platoon of elite Italian soldiers is horrifically and mysteriously slaughtered. Strangford's occult ability can uncover the truth behind the massacre, but a violent fate stalks him from the trenches. Only Lily stands a chance of changing its course.

To save the man she loves, she must gather allies splintered by war, grief and betrayal, following the whisper of a gothic horror through ice-dimmed caverns and an ancient forest haunted by something worse than wolves.

Far more than Strangford's life hangs in the balance. The future itself is threatened by monsters born from the bloodsoaked work of Lily's worst enemy. To stop them, she confront the darkest potential of a power that could tear her apart—and everything may depend upon who is left to pull her back together again.

Prepare to fall into the shattering conclusion of The London Charismatics historical fantasy series, narrated by twenty-year acting veteran Alex Picard.
