About this listen

Unjustly imprisoned for 18 years in the Bastille, Dr. Alexandre Manette is reunited with his daughter, Lucie, and safely transported from France to England. It would seem that they could take up the threads of their lives in peace. As fate would have it though, the pair are summoned to the Old Bailey to testify against a young Frenchman - Charles Darnay - falsely accused of treason. Strangely enough, Darnay bears an uncanny resemblance to another man in the courtroom, the dissolute lawyer's clerk Sydney Carton. It is a coincidence that saves Darnay from certain doom more than once.

Couldn’t get past Chapter 2 as distracted by the music. Listened to Oliver Twist and Hard Times on Alexa first (no music) and they were fantastic so subscribed on that basis but can’t be doing with the music on this title

Music too annoying
