CROSS HER HEART

Narrator Antonia Beamish provides the three main characters of this mystery with unique personas. Her skill helps listeners absorb a complex story that focuses on the intersection of past and present. At its core, this is a psychological thriller set in England and told from the perspectives of a single mom, Lisa; her daughter, Ava; and Lisa's best friend, Marilyn. As secrets from Lisa's past emerge, the characters must confront terrifying realities. The story requires an adroit narration, which Beamish accomplishes in part because her delivery meshes seamlessly with the various personalities, complementing each and allowing the story to build to its memorable conclusion.
