I was disappointed with this book. I'm a huge fan of the first two and will still read the next one but the mystery wasn't as intriguing and the conclusion to it felt out of the blue and without that most of "of course! The signs were all there!" Feeling I want from murder mysteries.
Audrey Rose annoyed me a lot and made decisions that felt as though it was purely to drag the plot in a certain direction instead of based on an already established character

Not as good as the other books, purely because I didn’t enjoy the love triangle. Still a great read though and highly recommend.

Oh my gosh- THIS BOOK
Reviewed in the United Kingdom on 29 May 2019Verified Purchase
This book. Oh my god, this book was incredible. 3 books in and I still can never work out who the killer is and still feel as shocked as I did when I read Stalking Jack the Ripper.
I really enjoyed it, at first I was worried it would be a little slow and maybe not as good as the previous two, but within a few chapters, it was an intense as the others. I was a little frustrated with the introduction of the new love interest, throughout Audrey Rose has been a strong character who didn't have any romantic moments until the last book, and even that took two full books to get to. I love Thomas's character too much to want to see her with any other, and I think she did too ultimately.
I loved the brief steamy make-outs scattered throughout, whenever the book got too serious a scene would be thrown in to ease the tension and make my heart flutter like I was the one in the room with him, not her. I must have highlighted a passage in every scene that was remotely romantic!
I loved that we got to see more of Liza also, when we were first introduced to her in the first book I was worried she would be used simply as a plot device to highlight how different Audrey Rose is, but instead she is shown to be the strong character she is and it just shows that you can come across as a more traditional Victorian young girl but still be as badass as the non-traditional girl.
I loved their relationship, it was just as it should be between family, there was no competition, despite Liza not being interested or familiar with the work Audrey Rose does, she was still included and still listened and supported them all during their time. Just as Audrey Rose was there for Liza. It made me wish I had the same depth of relationship with cousins of mine.
I cannot wait for the fourth, and I really really hope the series will never end!

One of the worst series sequel I’ve read
Reviewed in the United Kingdom on 14 March 2020Verified Purchase
The audiobook was very good; the one person who narrates the whole thing does different accents and tones of voice to liven up the cast of characters, to make it feel like it isn’t just one person.
But Escaping From Houdini makes Audrey Rose an unlikeable narrator, and the plot only makes sense because she acts senselessly and runs around in circles. I’d say only 50 - 80 pages of this book were actually enjoyable for me. Audrey Rose also becomes a massive hypocrite in believing her female cousin isn’t capable of thinking for herself - exactly what Audrey Rose criticises men for in books 1 and 2.
Honestly I was extremely relieved when this book was over. The only good thing about it was Thomas Cresswell and the interesting setting (a cruise liner at sea where someone is murdering people). I wouldn’t rush to recommend this.
