From AudioFile:

Sonya Walger immerses the listener in this audio with her clear voice and British accent. Lauren, a wealthy New York divorcŽe, is on her divorce honeymoon when she meets Sylvia, a British woman who is on her wedding honeymoon--alone--because of her husband's work commitments. Walger capably switches from Sylvia's British accent to Lauren's more nasal American tones. Lauren's voice is filled with inflection and a touch of humor as she takes her wealth and recent divorce in stride. As Sylvia finds herself amid Manhattan's Debutante Divorcees, her developing distrust in her new husband is revealed in her hesitant voice. Walger's skilled character differentiation helps listeners enjoy a clever story. S.M. � AudioFile 2007, Portland, Maine-- Copyright � AudioFile, Portland, Maine
