SEDUCED Hannah Smith, Book 4

Narrator Renée Raudman delivers a mixed performance of this mystery. Protagonist Hannah Smith is not entirely credible as a fishing guide and investigator who is looking for love. Raudman manages to deliver even the worst lines with some effectiveness. She portrays Hannah just fine, though, as she does most of the characters in this story of Florida's dying orange groves, pythons, greed, science, and an assortment of villains. However, her poor accents are a distraction. Ouch. Overall, a decent story is slightly improved by a decent narrator. G.S.D. © AudioFile 2016, Portland, Maine [Published: NOVEMBER 2016]
