ONCE A REBEL

Fate separates best friends and neighbors Callistra and Gordon. Narrator Beverley Crick develops a sweet-voiced Callistra from early womanhood to her recent unexpected widowhood. Even dealing with her great loss, Calistra's voice continues to ring proud and clear. Now this strong woman who has been molded by so many challenges finds herself once again face to face with Gordon, who she thought was dead. Callistra immediately recognizes his unforgettable commanding voice, so well enunciated and tinged with a British accent. Putney spins their love story through dialogue, which Crick delivers in distinct voices. While the War of 1812 rages in the background, their speech remains the focus for listeners.
