UNDER THE BLACK MOUNTAIN

Narrator Rebecca Macauley pulls listeners into the time period, unique setting, and compelling characters of this satisfying mystery. At the end of WWI, Eva Willoughby flees an abusive marriage in England and seeks refuge with her friend, Sylvia, in the Black Mountains of Queensland, Australia. Eva begins a job as assistant to Detective Sergeant Jack Shaw and soon learns that the mountains hide many secrets, including several disappearances. When Sylvia becomes the latest to go missing and nothing is done to find her, Eva takes matters into her own hands. Macauley infuses Eva with resilience and passion. Her pacing perfectly matches Eva's determination to find her friend. K.S.M. © AudioFile 2024, Portland, Maine [Published: AUGUST 2024]
