A short, 30 minute, jaunt through a decent but somewhat predictable tale. The narrator is competent, however adds very little to this story. There is value here for people who engage in this particular genre, like me, but ultimately there are much better stories told elsewhere. As an Audible Plus title, I do think it's worth the 30 minute investment even if you do come away with very little to shoe for it.

Decent, if somewhat predictable.

The story was good and would have been so much better had the narrator not sounded like he was giving a Hop on Hop off Bus tour of a mundane town.

A short (30+ minutes) and predictable story recounted by a photographer assignments to take promotional photos of a large Dorsetshire Georgian house about to be placed on the market after it's very elderly female owner had been pronounced dead. Well written and a little creepy, it was a quick read to fill an odd half an hour but nothing special. The narrator, James Warrior, was competent but was unable to add anything to the tale.

I enjoyed the story, but disliked the narrator. I found his performance quite flat, and added nothing to the sense of malice and unease that should have been portrayed.

Enjoyable but...
