Historia
World War II continues, and Ada and her brother, Jamie, are living with their loving legal guardian, Susan, in a borrowed cottage on the estate of the formidable Lady Thorton - along with Lady Thorton herself and her daughter. Life in the crowded cottage is tense enough, and then, quite suddenly, Ruth, a Jewish girl from Germany, moves in. A German? The occupants of the house are horrified. But other impacts of the war become far more frightening. As death creeps closer to their door, life and morality during wartime grow more complex.

Delightful

Solid mystery that doesn't insult the reader's (listening audience's ) intelligence. I had to get used to the narrator but once I did I liked him!

I love Mrs Pollifax and Barbara Rosenblatt, and you will as well. It has everything - intrigue, excitement, humor and the best old lady spy that ever "lived".

Not suspenseful
Revisado: 10-01-15
What could have made this a 4 or 5-star listening experience for you?
a better story
Would you ever listen to anything by Nora Roberts again?
No.
Did Julia Whelan do a good job differentiating all the characters? How?
Julia Whelan's narration was pretty good, I think she kept me hoping that the story would pick up or that I would care more about anyone in the plot
What character would you cut from The Witness [Brilliance Audio Edition]?
all of them.
Any additional comments?
This book seemed to be formulaic, both in plot and character development. It wasn't able to hold my attention.
