Listeners will be charmed by narrator Davina Porter's lovely Italian accent as this usually London-based series takes a sojourn to Lucca, Italy. Sergeant Barbara Havers is the main character in this lengthy untangling of the kidnapping of Havers's appealing young neighbor, Hadiyyah. Porter gives the cast of familiar and new characters distinct portraits, and the vocal clues for each add to the listening experience. As the story winds on--more than 28 hours-- Porter helps to keep listeners focused. The descriptive Italian details add to the enjoyment, though the untranslated Italian phrases are slightly more confusing than they might be in print. Fans will be pleased with this inventive turn in the 18th entry of the Lynley-Havers series. R.F.W. © AudioFile 2013, Portland, Maine [Published: NOVEMBER 2013]
