The stage of Rosewood Lane is densely populated in this second of the Cedar Cove series. Eventually, a mystery does develop, but much of the narrative space is devoted to the romantic relationships between the characters, each in varying stages of success—from the disappearance of Grace Sherman’s husband after over thirty years of marriage to the impetuousness of young newlyweds Seth and Justine. Sandra Burr effortlessly shifts between the female characters, giving each her own distinctly recognizable vocal pattern. Both Grace and Olivia sound mature without sounding crotchety, and their voices even take on a girlish lilt when their "gentlemen friends" (whose voicings are noticeably unvaried) enter the scene. Burr's pace is slow and deliberate, but the style fits well, enhancing the rose-scented-picket-fence aura of the book. A.H.A. © AudioFile 2008, Portland, Maine [Published: JUN/ JUL 08]
