SILVER TEARS

Narrator Tanya Cubric's velvety-rich seductive voice draws listeners into this dark tale. The novel continues the story of Faye Adelheim, CEO of the highly successful cosmetics company Revenge. Faye's past actions are now coming back to haunt her, threatening all she cherishes. Cubric performs the Swedish characters with a posh British accent and keeps to a steady pace. Her deep voice works well for the male characters--all of whom are violent misogynists. There is less differentiation for female characters. She smoothly pronounces the Swedish place names as the story moves back and forth from Faye's childhood to her current situation. Overall, the listening experience unfolds like a soap opera; it's a complex, melodramatic story with a cliff-hanger ending. E.Q. © AudioFile 2021, Portland, Maine [Published: AUGUST 2021]
