WAY too long
This is just my HUMBLE opinion, but this book seriously needed a good editor. By part three, I was getting rather sick of the unbearably long scenes and ticked off that a lazy or incompetent editor was unwilling to move paragraphs/chapters around to make a tighter, more compelling story. At 15 hours, I longed for it to wrap up. Since I had put in the time to listen to parts one and two, I felt I needed to see it to the end. Hence, fast forward worked nicely. I don't think I missed anything critical for several hours of listening that way. And I managed to get to the rather predictable ending. Don't waste your credit even if you love Eileen Goudge.

5 stars is not merely enough
I love a good tear jerker and this definitely will make you go through a box of tissues. I am using an iPhone to listen and it broke the 18 hour listen into 3 parts. If you are also broken into 3 parts, be sure to have a box of Kleenex for the last part!
This is a story of love, friendship and the loyalties given to each!
I did see where another reviewer said the narrator seemed to be so exasperated in her tone of voice and I can understand as I hear that also, but that does not take away from such a wonderful story!

Narrator needs a valium
Maybe it's the writing, but my real problem with this book is that the narrator sounds like every word is a life or death situation. I listened to a few chapters and then had to stop - I couldn't take the voice anymore. I just wanted her to relax and tell the story without so much power behind her voice. I enjoyed reading (rather than listening to) A Woman in Red - another book by Eileen Goudge, but this one suffers as much from the narration as it may from the writing.
