About this audiobook
#1 New York Times bestselling author Nora Roberts presents a passionate story from the thrilling Night Tales series.…
They called him Nemesis. He walked the dark alleyways alone, a shadow among shadows—and that's the way he liked it. Until the night he saved Deborah O'Roarke from an attacker and rediscovered the quiet ache of yearning lodged in his heart. It had been a long time since he had wanted to reach out to someone…. But Deborah was an idealistic prosecutor who played by the rules and abhorred the vigilantism of her mysterious defender. Could she come to love the phantom who lurked in the Night Shadow?

- Rating: 4 out of 5 stars4/5Great storyline and past getting their own reward as it os ment to be .
- Rating: 3 out of 5 stars3/5This narrator has something off about her speech, a lisp maybe? It’s very annoying and it impacts the story, as it’s hard to get invested with the distraction.
The story is well written, with an interesting twist. Would be much better with a different narrator.
If you are sensitive to noise distractions this is not a book for you. - Rating: 3 out of 5 stars3/5A Batman rip off I hate saying it I really do. I love Nora and her books but in this one all I could think of was Batman.
- Rating: 5 out of 5 stars5/5Great detective story & love. And people that care about each other
- Rating: 4 out of 5 stars4/5Masked superhero (he can turn invisible) with a fortune (shades of batman) meets beautiful DA, falls madly in love at first sight and then finds himself embroiled in an adventure that solves the mystery of who betrayed him and who is trying to kill her.It's fun. The invisibility thing could have really been left out and the story wouldn't have been much less for it. It's a fun light read with echoes of batman.
- Rating: 5 out of 5 stars5/5This is the second book in the Night Tales series, and my favorite.Deborah O'Roarke is an assistant district attorney. Gage Guthrie is.... well, he's a lot of things. He's an ex-cop who'd been nearly killed in the line of duty and spent several months in a coma. He's very wealthy, due to an inheritance.And he's Nemesis, a superhero who can turn invisible.Law and order vs. vigilante superhero. It's irresistible.I grew up with Batman (Adam West, not the comics), and there are definite similarities--regular guy, secret identity, even the butler.There are also similarities to the In Death series Nora writes as J. D. Robb--the very wealthy man, the computer expertise, the house, and the butler again.I'd complain about a mask keeping Deborah from recognizing that Gage = Nemesis, but there's a long comics tradition there. It works for Batman and Spider-Man, and a simple pair of glasses keeps Lois Lane from recognizing that Clark Kent is Superman, so there's a huge amount of precedent there. Plus, Deborah is a little smarter than those other women: ****mild spoiler**** she can tell she's kissing the same man. ****This is one of Nora's unusual books--there's Art of Deception, the slapstick-silly one, Storm Warning, the Agatha Christie one, and Night Shadow, the comics one. It seems that there's another one that's a departure.... ah, I think it's Search for Love, the gothic one, maybe. I'd love to see Nemesis comic books, but sadly, it's not going to happen. (I asked.)
- Rating: 3 out of 5 stars3/5This is an older story, they mention VCR's in it, but still good after all this time. Surprise ending is good, as well as the character development. More emphasis on the romance element, than I prefer, but a good adventure/fantasy worth reading.
