Charming. Simple yet enchanting. Predictable yet captivating. Listening to this recording was a pure delight. I could relax, lean back, close my eyes, and let the story take my imagination away. The beautiful and charming criminal mastermind, the ruthless Madam Sara, was always two steps ahead of her adversaries, two shrewd and cunning detectives with keen intelligence. A game of cat and mouse with peoples’ lives at stake. Very much like Professor James Moriarty (only much prettier) vs Sherlock Holmes and Dr. John H. Watson. Or perhaps a more fitting comparison would be Josephine Balsamo vs Arsene Lupin. Anyway, the action never stopped and Madam Sara never relented. Good story, well written, superbly narrated, I recommend it.

easy listening
