She has a husband and child of her own and a fulfilling job in a Manhattan museum, but she also has questions - about the tragedy that cut her off from family and caused her to be sent away and about those first five years of her life, which were erased from her memory entirely.

This is a great story. Narrators voice was not a good match for the main character but she is a good narrator. Her voice sounds older and it was hard to picture main character as young.

narrator's voice no match for the main character
I'm sorry but the narrator's voice does not match the main character in the story in anyway. The story seemed interesting enough from the start but sadly the listening experience produced mild frustration at best!.... The main character is supposed to be a 30 something female, however it is practically impossible to relax and let images of the interesting young women that is supposed to be telling the story form in your head without simultaneously fighting to distraction to block out the involuntary images automatically produced by the voice of someone sounding closer in age to Miss Marple then lets say any of the leading female characters one might find in a Hallmark mystery movie. The narrator does read well so I'm sure if the character(s) in the story were all near or over 75, I might actually enjoy her performance, but as it is, when it comes to reading the part of a 30+ women, this narrator's cadence and quavering voice all but destroys what should be vibrant images of a fascinating young women caught in the middle of an intriguing mystery.
