PUBLISHERS WEEKLY REVIEWS
“Reader Larkin is an excellent choice to narrate this delightful classic from mystery maven Christie. Larkin’s performance captures that sense of carefree enthusiasm for life before the crash. Her reading is champagne bubbly and engaging throughout the book. This is a jaunty, jolly good listen.” Agatha Christie’s The Secret Adversary
“Narrator Larkin—born in America but raised in England—effectively captures Boyne’s characters, particularly the manner in which both class and gender shape daily life. Larkin also does a masterful job rendering the male voices, especially prominent village figures such as the barrister and clergyman, both steeped in the male privilege of the era. Yet, the most memorable aspect of Larkin’s performance is her eerie portrayal of the two young children at the center of the otherworldly forces that Eliza encounters.” — This house is Haunted by John Boyne (Tantor, Horror.)
