Secrets of the Lost Ledgers

The Glass Library, Book 5

By: C.J. Archer

Narrated by: Marian Hussey

An invisible message from a dead man resurrects a decades-old mystery.

With her sharpened magical senses, Sylvia recognizes invisible writing while cataloging an obscure book for the library. She’s shocked to discover the message, written many years earlier, pleaded for help. She’s even more shocked to discover the author of the message was married to a paper magician. Could there be a connection to Sylvia’s father?

With a magical mystery on her hands, Sylvia engages the help of Gabe Glass, and together they follow the clues to the location of two hidden ledgers that implicate a very dangerous individual in an illegal bookmaking scheme. Although not named, Gabe is convinced he knows who the bookmaker is, and sets out to prove it.

The investigation draws them into the shady underbelly of the horseracing industry and uncovers a link to Gabe’s parents that takes everyone by surprise. As they unravel the mystery’s tangled threads, unexpected twists and turns lead them to the truth.

But the greatest twist of all is the danger no one saw coming.

Love these!!

Super fun and engaging reads- really sad book 6 isn’t out yet!! Loved all of these!

Great series.

I love getting swept up in the plots, the people, the mysteries and the history. The narrator is excellent and the characters are very distinguishable.

Interesting developments!

Sylvia and Gabe's stories have both developed in this book. Sylvia learns even more about her familial roots and add new members to her family and Gabe is tricked into revealing his magic affinity to those wishing to test him. I can't wait to see what happens next!

Love this series

This series is one of the best —great author—amazing narration -perfect story that you just wait for the next book 10/5 if I were able to give a # scoring

Keeps getting better

First off, the narration is perfect as always. I listen to a lot of books and she is by far my favorite. The story wasn’t as fun as other books but the bar is super high for this series so that isn’t saying much- I still thoroughly enjoyed it. And I don’t want to give spoilers but something I’ve waited for since the very beginning is happening in the next book and I can’t believe I have to wait until March!

love it

I absolutely love this series and the previous Glass and Steele series. Gabe, Sylvia and friends are wonderful characters. I can't wait for the next book!

Just keeps getting better

I love this series and this book is another great addition. I love everything about it

A solid continuation of the series

Good characters, well written in an interesting alternative history with magicians. I think it will be fun when Matt and India are back.

Another Amazing Read

I loved the original series so
I knew I would love this one too!! The plot twists are amazing!! I am edge waiting for the next installment.

LET THERE BE MORE!!!!!!

LOVE this series. Loved the first one I resd.. I have not jumped into any of the other series this wonderful woman has shared with us, and I’m sure the other series are great as well. I be letting you know in the near future.. However, I would like to have more of the whole group and more series where they spend their days looking for bad guys and good times. Want just more of this whole group. The characters are just wonderful, and there is such a good diversity among them. The stories are just perfect for me: not too deep, not too thin, not too bloody, not to slow - just perfect. (BTW - my name is Goldie-locks
