About this listen

Can you flimflam a ghost?

It’s 1934. Former medium Dashiel Quicke travels the country debunking spiritualism and false mediums while struggling to stay ahead of his ex-business partner and lover who wants him back at any cost. During a demonstration at a college campus, Dashiel meets Hermann Goschalk, an Egyptologist who’s convinced that he has a genuine haunted artifact on his hands. Certain there is a rational explanation for whatever is going on with Hermann’s relics, Dashiel would rather skip town, but soon finds himself falling for Hermann. He agrees to take a look after all and learns that something is haunting Hermann’s office indeed.

Faced with a real ghost Dashiel is terrified, but when the haunting takes a dangerous turn, he must use the tools of the shady trade he left behind to communicate with this otherworldly spirit before his past closes in.

For listeners who enjoy A Marvellous Light by Freya Marske, The House in the Cerulean Sea by TJ Klune, and Malice by Heather Walter

Loved the premise

I was hooked by the ties to ancient Egypt & the paranormal. I liked Herman and Dashell, I appreciate flawed characters. Loved the vengeful spirit and the focus on that part of the story.

I dud not care for the B plot with the ex, it dragged on for too long and took the focus off of the main paranormal story.

Great narration as always by Matt Haynes.

a wonderful blend of suspense and horror

The Shabti is a really masterful mix of romance, mystery and paranormal. It had me holding my breath several times, and gave me real anxiety with the crazy jealous ex subplot. The romance was perfectly sweet even though I felt bad for poor Herman several times. I do like an opposites attract story especially between a former rogue and a sweet academic. I'll definitely be checking out Lorenz's future works!
