ALL THAT IS MINE I CARRY WITH ME

This is an example of a great story with narrators who understand their characters and who portray them beautifully. The unique aspect of the story--and an added challenge for the narrators--is that multiple first-person perspectives are used. A woman is missing, and suspicion is cast on her husband. The family is split over his innocence. The emotions that come with this horrific situation are clearly embraced by the quartet of narrators. Frustration and anger boil over. Sarcasm seeps in. Each of the three children is a different person with their own baggage, and the narration captures them all while alternating between time frames. A detective with an appropriate New England accent is particularly well done. The book is riveting, the narrators carry the pace, and the twists are well supported yet surprising.
