THE PURSUIT

Virginia Leishman's British accent enhances the story line of this fourth installment in Wick's English Garden series. The plot, which takes place in the early 1800s, has twists, beginning with the shipboard encounter of Edward Steele and two men who are in trouble. When Edward discovers that one of the men is really a woman in disguise whose name is Nikki, he is determined to find the cause of her secrecy. But she leaves and reappears in his life later as a beautiful young woman who touches his heart. The story has an inspirational aspect, along with many Biblical references. Leishman narrates clearly, distinguishing all the characters. Her presentation makes an imaginative story seem believable. N.L. © AudioFile 2007, Portland, Maine [Published: AUG/ SEP 07]
