Clara Vaughan, Vol. III


Read by LibriVox Volunteers

(4.2 stars; 21 reviews)

CLARA VAUGHAN, the young heroine, narrator, and namesake for R. D. Blackmore’s early detective novel, is determined to solve the mystery of her father’s murder—a crime that occurred when she was only 10 years of age. The third volume of the trilogy concludes the account of Clara’s adventures, romances, and encounters with many eccentric characters while she finally unravels the mystery. As Clara explains to the reader in an early chapter: “How that deed was done, I learned at once, and will tell. By whom and why it was done, I have given my life to learn.” R. D. Blackmore, undoubtedly better known for his later novel Lorna Doone, published this book anonymously in 1864. - Summary by lubee930 (7 hr 52 min)

Reviews

A good story.


(4 stars)

Not as good as Lorna Doone, but still good. Something is seriously wrong with book 5, chp 5, though: sounds like Ms. Callum forgot to edit.


(2 stars)

One chapter -- 3 O believe--is nearly unintelligible due to poor quality of the recording.

Editing needed


(3.5 stars)

Great take , good readers. Unfortunately a few chapters are in need of editing. Chapter V completely unlistenable because of constant self correction by the reader, which has not been edited out.


(4 stars)

Enjoyed the book. But book 3 chapter 5 is dreadful. Errors throughout not removed. Book 3 chapter 3 volume is too loud. Almost impossible to understanding. In spite of that a good book.

ah well...
