IN THE FULLNESS OF TIME

Time unfolds according to its own rhythms in this historical audiobook, capably narrated by Robert Fass. Despite having been elected to law enforcement mostly against his better judgment, widower, farmer, and reluctant sheriff Clinton Salter is determined to do a good job of it. As he negotiates crimes that range from public drunkenness and tractor theft to arson and possible murder, Salter finds his wounded heart awakening to the possibilities of love. Fass embodies the pastoral nature of this story, which is set in 1960s North Carolina amid the rugged terrain of the mountains and the quixotic people who inhabit them. Steady and unhurried, Fass's narration keeps listeners grounded in the novel's time and place. N.M. © AudioFile 2025, Portland, Maine [Published: DECEMBER 2025]
