    The clarity, precision, and mellow grace of Golden Voice Cassandra Campbell’s narrations have made her a favorite for a wide range of audiobooks. Host Jo Reed and AudioFile’s Alan Minskoff discuss how her clear and precise narration elevates What the Ermine Saw, with her lovely mastery of Italian on display. She reads with authority and enlivens Eden Collinsworth’s text that gives life to a da Vinci masterpiece, “The Lady with Ermine,” hidden from the world for more than two centuries.
