ANYBODY OUT THERE?

Irish native Anna Walsh enjoys her life in New York as a PR person for an upscale cosmetics company. As she meets and falls in love with Aidan Maddox, her life is almost perfect. When tragedy strikes, Anna must rely on her family in Ireland to support her through difficult times. Terry Donnelly's crisp Irish accent embodies Anna and changes subtly to show her tender broken heart. Donnelly ably varies pitch to distinguish between the characters. The production's only drawback concerns the accents of the American characters, who still retain a slight Irish lilt. Nevertheless, Donnelly's smooth lyrical voice will lure listeners into this entertaining audio experience. S.M. © AudioFile 2006, Portland, Maine [Published: OCT/ NOV 06]
