THE LIST OF 7

Mark Frost weaves fiction and fact with more fiction by mixing established literary characters into his own plot of mystery and intrigue. Young Arthur Conan Doyle sets out to unravel the identities and purpose of the Dark Brotherhood, a group of deadly "dabblers in the spiritual arts." Rene Auberjonous narrates and provides the characterizations for the cast of characters. His narrative style is well-suited to this spooky tale, and his variety of English accents is wonderful. He skillfully moves from character to narrator and back to character. There's just one problem--every character has an English accent except the very British Conan Doyle.
