UNDER THE STARS

by | Read by Helen Laser, Xe Sands, Johnathan McClain, Rachel F. Hirsch, Adam Verner, Will Damron

Fiction • 12 hrs. • Unabridged • © 2025

A six-person cast narrates a story spanning two centuries, set on a remote island in New York. Rachel Hirsch portrays Providence, a sweet nineteenth-century maid who is secretly fleeing Boston after the murder of her employer. In modern times, Audrey, portrayed by Helen Laser, is feeling frazzled and cynical due to her responsibility for shepherding her sultry movie star mother, Meredith, portrayed by Xe Sands, back to her home on the small island to "dry out." Testy conversations between mother and daughter sparkle with loving frustration on both sides. The old and new stories dovetail because of the wreck of Providence's ship on the rocks of the island. The male narrators have smaller but well-rendered roles, especially Johnathan McClain as the elderly gentleman whose life story ties the pieces together.
