Editor's Review ★★★★

AudioBook Atlas

I found myself completely engrossed in A Country Road, A Tree, thanks in large part to David Rintoul's exceptional narration. His voice is engaging and expressive, bringing each character to life with their distinct personalities and emotions. The story itself is a captivating blend of history, romance, and suspense, painting a vivid picture of Paris under Nazi occupation. Rintoul's pacing is spot-on, creating a sense of urgency and tension that mirrors the era's turmoil. However, I did find that some of the more technical aspects of espionage and artistry were not fully explored, leaving me wanting more insight into these intricate worlds.
