Danielle Cohen delivers a warm and engaging performance of a Victorian romance that reaches for the steampunk stars. Born into money, Diana "Diver" Smythe has a sudden change of fortune that leaves her orphaned and alone. She survives as a street thief with a talent for timing. Growing up in the shadow of the Southampton Spaceport, Diver dreams of escaping her life on the streets--a dream that becomes complicated by the interference of a handsome, young police officer and a vengeful gang leader who is out for blood. Cohen's voice rings with personality and passion as she brings Diver to life through a solid narration that gently matches the pitch and swell of a well-told romance. This is a lovely start to a new series. E.M.U. © AudioFile 2020, Portland, Maine [Published: MAY 2020]
