The Merchant and the Rogue

The Dread Penny Society, Book 3

by Sarah M. Eden

⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐ /5

The Dead Penny Society is back and continuing their fight to keep London safe! But this time Brogan Donnelly has been given a special mission and needs to work outside of the Dread Penny Society. He will need to learn to be a leader or die trying!

Luckily Brogan meets Russian immigrant, Vera Sorokina on his investigation. Vera runs her fathers print shop and has been raised to dispose writers… good thing our penny dreadful author, Brogan has gone undercover! She becomes his greatest ally and partner… that is until his lies come to the forefront.

As alway, Sarah M. Eden delivers a truly captivating romantic mystery!

Like the other books of the series, there are 2 penny dreadful stories woven into the book that mirror/ add to the plot! Included in the this book was The Merchant and the Rogue by a penny dreadful favourite, Mr. King, and The Dead Zoo by character Brogan Donnelly himself. I adored these extra tales just as much as the central story! All three were unique in their own way and added to this book

This was another fun read, that I can easily recommend!

The Merchant and the Rogue by Sarah M. Eden is due to release August 17th, 2021.

I received a complimentary copy of this book from Shadow Mountain Publishing through NetGalley. Opinions expressed in this review are completely my own.
