Every Monday through Friday, AudioFile’s editors recommend the best in audiobook listening. We keep our daily episodes short and sweet, with audiobook clips to give you a sample of our featured listens.
January LaVoy narrates Sarai Walker’s chilling audiobook complete with ghosts, madness, and secrets. Host Jo Reed and AudioFile’s Sandi Henschel discuss Golden Voice narrator LaVoy’s skill at delivering fully developed characters and creating the perfect ambiance for this gothic novel. LaVoy channels Sylvia Wren, a world-famous, reclusive Arizona artist.
Currently, she’s being hounded by a journalist who’s threatening to reveal her real identity: She is the heiress to the Chapel Firearms fortune, Iris Chapel. One-upping the reporter, Sylvia writes her own memoir, offering a disturbing look at her childhood. LaVoy navigates the backstory smoothly, becoming each of the six doomed sisters and their Cassandra-like mother.
