Amazing I’d give it more stars if I could

Not one boring part. I had no idea who the “ bad guy” was because of how brilliantly the author portrayed Carrie and showing them through her eyes. Just a wonderful book that I couldn’t put down. I hope this author has more books this fantastic! Also I just loved carrie’s voice

compelling!

the compelling main characters situation added a layer of suspense to every interaction. The writing was so evocative that the reader feels comfortably ensconced in that corner of London. All in all, a great listen.

Very interesting

Author does a great job of playing a tug-of-war between the two Good Samaritans. Which one is guilty? Sometimes I got irritated at Carrie. Sometimes it’s obvious what’s going to happen. But all in all, a good whodunit. The reason I found this book is because this narrator is AMAZING. I listened to her narrate one of my favorite Mary Stewart books, and I really wanted to find more of her work. She does a wonderful job with this book, and her voice is always lovely to listen to. She does a very good job of performing Carrie’s necessary flat affect.
