In need of a good adventure, Delaney Nichols takes the leap and moves to Edinburgh, Scotland, to start a job at The Cracked Spine. She doesn't know much about what she's gotten herself into other than that the work sounds exciting and that her new boss, Edwin MacAlister, has given her the opportunity of a lifetime.
When she arrives, she meets her new Scottish family; also working at The Cracked Spine are Rosie, perpetually wrapped in scarves, who always has tiny dog Hector in tow; Hamlet, a 19-year-old thespian with a colored past and a bright future; and Edwin, who is just as enigmatic and mysterious as Delaney expected.
But before she can settle in to her new life, a precious artifact - a previously undiscovered first folio of Shakespeare's plays - goes missing, and Edwin's sister is murdered, seemingly in connection to the missing folio. Delaney decides to do some sleuthing of her own to find out just what the real story is behind the priceless folio and how it's connected to the tragic death - all without getting harmed herself.

To my untrained ears, the narrator did a fine job with the accents, so the listen was enjoyable.

It took a little getting used to the fact that the book is narrated by a man even though it is told from the perspective of a woman.
And he uses a rather high pitched voice for the "I said" parts but his natural voice for the narrated parts even though they are told from a "me"-perspective.
But he does a good job distinguishing the different characters and is very good with the different accents (American, light Scottish, heavy Scottish).
The story itself has a good flow. The characters are well described, likable and the motivations for their actions are believable.
I am going to read the next book of the series because I think the setup has potential.
