Fantastic audio talents of Rachel Carr as she brings the characters to life.
Fantastic audio and story.

ANother lovely story

Well, first of all, this book has the best opening scene of any of them. I simply loved it, and that's all that I will say to not ruin it for you.

I really liked how comfortable is Hope with her brother now, and how well they work together. And how she doubts of her own perceptions after she made a mistake in her appraise of the people who come to help her with an issue she has at home; it's a great detail that makes Hope even more human.

As always, Rachel Carr does an amazing job in the narration of this story.
