About This Book

Sherry Broward is just a small-time art thief who made one very bad decision. After stealing a Rembrandt sets off a chain reaction of chaos, she finds herself caught between the Russian mob, local law enforcement, and a succubus ex who runs the city's most dangerous nightclub. The situation grows more complicated when Sherry falls for Jemma, an art recovery specialist moonlighting as a superhero, all while a mysterious serum she was exposed to begins rewriting the rules of her own biology. Aoibh Wood's 2024 debut blends urban fantasy, queer romance, and screwball comedy into a story that keeps its anti-heroine perpetually off-balance.

Abby Craden brings Sherry to life with sharp comic timing and a warm, self-deprecating energy that perfectly matches the character's frantic optimism. Craden navigates the book's tonal range with ease, shifting between genuinely tense moments and absurdist set pieces without losing narrative momentum. At just over nine hours, the pacing rarely lags, and the audio format suits the story's breathless, first-person voice particularly well.
