I am still enjoying this series.
More adventures for Luka and Emilia as they chase the next charm for their bracelet. They find it in Rye, as an earring in a smugglers ear and in exchange for this charm they must trade the telescope that Luka got from a person they had spent some time with on their trip.
They travel in this book with a royalist group - The Duke of Ormond, his servant Nate, Tom Whitehead who is someone from home and a Catholic Priest.

This is book four in a series of six. Luka and Emilia are desperate to find the fourth charm, which will help save their families from the gallows.
This book was rather slower than the others. Not as much happened, not as much urgency felt. That's not to say I didn't enjoy it. In fact, in some ways this book felt more realistic as the children weren't escaping from the clutches of Coldham every five minutes.
I'll continue reading the series.

Book 4 - entertaining, just as the other ones. i quite liked this one because of a couple of newish characters, the earl who's a bit blind, really, and the shifty gypsy smuggler (whose name has just escaped me). lots of running away from their captors again and somehow Emilia and Luka always find a way out.
