BITTER CHOCOLATE Alcott Family Adventures, Book 2

Kelley Hazen narrates the sequel to HOT CHOCOLATE to delicious perfection. The billionaire family of Houston's Alcott Chocolate empire strikes again, and they're funnier than ever. Hazen excels with each endearing sister; even more fun are feisty 92-year-old Bernie, the family patriarch, and his young love, squeaky-voiced Bambi. Adding further interest is the family's ethnically diverse staff: Amelia and Uncle Tito from Mexico, Chewy and Charles from China, and Wolfram, the astrologer from Germany. Hazen is spot-on with each accent and makes every character unique. When a pesky murder intrudes on the annual Chocolate Ball to benefit local cats and dogs, the charming Chance Walker enters the scene and livens things up for the sisters. Listeners will eagerly anticipate the Alcott family's every move. S.G.B. Winner of AudioFile Earphones Award © AudioFile 2015, Portland, Maine [Published: MARCH 2015]
