TWELVE RED HERRINGS

Set in Great Britain, these twelve fast-paced stories plunge into the thick of things. Each tale is a pressure cooker of mystery waiting to blow. British performer Alec McCowen handles each of the stories' various characters with ease. The listener will have no problem determining who is who as McCowen and Archer lead you through webs of intrigue. McCowen's narration is clear and precise and the listener is not bogged down by his English accent. The sound quality is excellent. This audio performance is straight storytelling with no sound effects or musical embellishments. D.L.V. ©AudioFile, Portland, Maine [Published: MAR 95]
