Series ✦ Penny’s Take 🎧 Audiobook
Conspiracy
Colleen Coble · 2026
🎙 Narrated by Karen Peakes
70/100
👍 Worth It
A tight cold-case hook - a trained leopard as a murder weapon is a wild image - carries this third Sanctuary book along nicely, blending suspense and slow-burn romance the way Coble's fans expect. It's best enjoyed after the first two books in the series for full context, so don't start here if you can help it. Karen Peakes' narration got a positive nod from at least one reviewer, though I don't have detail on her performance style.
