She brings Amelia Peabody to life with a perfect blend of wit, intelligence, and vulnerability, effortlessly navigating the audiobook's complex narrative and historical settings.

At times, the pace can feel a bit rushed, and some listeners may find themselves wishing for a bit more resolution before the next plot twist. Nevertheless, Peters' mastery of pacing and narrative tension keeps listeners invested in the story, even as they're hurtling towards the audiobook's satisfying conclusion. Overall, Lion in the Valley is a triumph of historical mystery and adventure, and Rosenblat's polished narration is the perfect complement to Peters' engaging storytelling.
