Cometh the Hour opens with the reading of a suicide note, which has devastating consequences for Harry and Emma Clifton, Giles Barrington, and Lady Virginia. Giles must decide if he should withdraw from politics and try to rescue Karin, the woman he loves, from behind the Iron Curtain. But is Karin truly in love with him, or is she a spy? Lady Virginia is facing bankruptcy and can see no way out of her financial problems until she is introduced to the hapless Cyrus T. Grant III from Baton Rouge, Louisiana.

Not Jeffrey Archer's finest work. OK for binge listening but far from great writing or literature. After so many books in this series the characters have become cardboard cut-outs of themselves. Excellent performance, however.

When the McPheron brothers see Victoria Roubideaux, the single mother they’d taken in, move from their ranch to begin college, an emptiness opens before them—and for many other townspeople it also promises to be a long, hard winter. A young boy living alone with his grandfather helps out a neighbor whose husband, off in Alaska, suddenly isn’t coming home, leaving her to raise their two daughters.

Beautiful Writing, Lovely Story

Where does Eventide rank among all the audiobooks you’ve listened to so far?
I read Plainsong first, and its story about a small town and an earlier (though not necessarily simpler) time drew me in. By the time it was finished I found myself wanting more--right away! Fortunately for me, Eventide picks the story up again. It isn't exactly a sequel, but is set in the same small town with some of the same homespun but highly engaging characters, working with challenges of loneliness and loss. Not exactly haunting in its beauty, but definitely one that will stay with you for a while.

The story begins in 1962. On a rocky patch of the sun-drenched Italian coastline, a young innkeeper, chest-deep in daydreams, looks out over the incandescent waters of the Ligurian Sea and spies an apparition: a tall, thin woman, a vision in white, approaching him on a boat. She is an actress, he soon learns, an American starlet, and she is dying. And the story begins again today, half a world away, when an elderly Italian man shows up on a movie studio's back lot - searching for the mysterious woman he last saw at his hotel decades earlier.

I've enjoyed many audiobooks, but this one was sheer vacation.
What about Edoardo Ballerini’s performance did you like?
Wonderful mastery of accents, cadence, tenor of the voices. A virtuoso performance!
