Sebastian St. Cyr mysteries by C.S. Harris

Another series that I have neglected to review, but that I dearly love to listen to (and have I believe twice already). C.S. Harris (IRL Candice Proctor) set this series in Regency England (early 1800s) and follows the adventures of Sebastian St. Cyr, Viscount Devlin. In the first novel, What Angels Fear, Sebastian himself is accused of murder, forcing him to go on the run as he works to discover the real murderer. Subsequent novels introduce other interesting characters--most notably Cat Boleyn, the love of Sebastian's life; and Hero Jarvis, daughter of Sebastian's most despised nemesis. The Audible versions are ready by Davina Porter, one of my absolute favorite narrators. At times the series gets a bit formulaic (there are always three murders by the time Sebastian finally gets his act together and discovers whodunit), but the characterization and plot twists will have you coming back for more.
